Dear developers, I found that the source code is the same for xulrunner-1.9 and xulrunner-1.9.1 on gNewSense metad: $ apt-get source xulrunner-1.9 gives the same file (xulrunner-1.9.1.4-2) as: $ apt-get source xulrunner-1.9.1 although the binary versions are different: $ apt-cache show xulrunner-1.9 | grep -i version Version: 1.9.0.19-6 Version: 1.9.0.19-3 $ apt-cache show xulrunner-1.9.1 | grep -i version Version: 1.9.1.4-2 How can this be possible?
(apt-cache show xulrunner-1.9 ; apt-cache show xulrunner-1.9.1) | egrep "Package|Source"
will show you that the source package of both is called "xulrunner". Apt-get's man page says that it will get "the newest available version of that source package", thus the newest version of 1.9.1.
Beside, how do I know which version of xulrunner-1.9 is installed on my system: 1.9.0.19-6 or 1.9.0.19-3?
Either apt-cache policy xulrunner-1.9 xulrunner-1.9.1 or lines starting with "ii" in dpkg -l '*xulrunner*'
