... which makes it really hard to make the decision of how far back you want to set your dependency on (since this decision is usually based on a mix of the changes and the age).

I could have an argument about how the date shouldn't be an issue - but I'll avoid that pointless digression :-) Can see no harm. Will sort for next release. Cheers, Adrian

Obviously it shouldn't :) Trouble is that sometimes a lot of change happens in a short period of time, and it takes a lot of time for those changes to migrate down into the testing versions of various linux/etc distributions, and then onwards into production releases. If the version you pick to depend on is 2+ years old, it's pretty certain that it is available in the production release of all distros (assuming it's packaged at all). Adam K

I consulted backpan since it appears to have accurate dates. I've added them to the Changes file and committed to github. Should be available in next release. Cheers, Ovid
