<dep type="pkg" rel="ge" version="1">MDB</dep> <dep type="pkg" rel="lt" version="3">MDB</dep> if BC is not broken for the stuff that is needed. Incidentally, I don't think people should increment the major version number unless there is at least SOME breakage of BC - otherwise, it is still version 1.x (or 2.x etc.), no? Greg
