[Ximi1970]

I deleted the current Debian Unstable package and forced another build. Hopefully this helps.

[Ximi1970]

I disabled the automatic package version numbering in OBS also for the deb packages. Hopefully this will solve the repository problems.

[Ximi1970]

Refactored the reposities a bit and I think the auto versioning set an invalid sub version '0'. All debian and arch package have now a valid "-1" suffix. And it looks like the mirrors are updated correctly again. Hopefully the repository problems have been solved.

[Ximi1970]

Created a new package version for TB 128.0. Hopefully this will also update the package databases and solve the error.

[benoitmasson]

It did, I was able to update sucessfully to 0.9.9-3.

Thank you!
