Debian Med operates a <ulink url="https://launchpad.net/~debian-med/+archive/ppa">Personal Package Archive</ulink> (PPA) on Launchpad, where packages are backported for Ubuntu. There is currently no team policy on what to build, but please keep in mind issues like the possibility to upgrade to the next Ubuntu stable release. Packages sent to this PPA may be kept as branches in our repositories. |

Please keep in mind issues like the possibility to upgrade to the next Ubuntu stable release. Packages that are backports can be made <ulink url="http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-controlfields.html#s-f-Version">inferior in version by using a tilde</ulink>. If the package contains additional development, a version number without the tilde will make it higher, but not as high as the next Debian revision. For example: <code>2.12.0-1~natty1</code> (backport in PPA) < <code>2.12.0-1</code> (from Debian in Ubuntu) < <code>2.12.0-1natty1</code> (in PPA, containing additions) < <code>2.12.0-2</code> (from Debian in Ubuntu). |
