Notice that the version has a ``-0ubuntu1`` appended to it, this is the distro revision, used so that the packaging can be updated (to fix bugs for example) with new uploads within the same source release version.

Ubuntu and Debian have slightly different package versioning schemes to avoid conflicting packages with the same source version. If a Debian package has been changed in Ubuntu, it has ``ubuntuX`` (where ``X`` is the Ubuntu revision number) appended to the end of the Debian version. So if the Debian hello ``2.6-1`` package was changed by Ubuntu, the version string would be ``2.6-1ubuntu1``. If a package for the application does not exist in Debian, then the Debian revision is ``0`` (e.g. ``2.6-0ubuntu1``).

The ``control`` file contains the information that the package manager (such as ``apt-get``, ``synaptic``, and ``adept``) uses, build-time dependencies, maintainer information, and much more.

For the Ubuntu ``hello`` package, the ``control`` file looks something like this:

The first paragraph describes the source package including the list of packages required to build the package from source in the ``Build-Depends`` field. It also contains some meta-information such as the maintainer's name, the version of Debian Policy that the package complies with, the location of the packaging version control repository, and the upstream home page.

Note that in Ubuntu, we set the ``Maintainer`` field to a general address because anyone can change any package (this differs from Debian where changing packages is usually restricted to an individual or a team). Packages in Ubuntu should generally have the ``Maintainer`` field set to ``Ubuntu Developers <ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com>``. If the Maintainer field is modified, the old value should be saved in the ``XSBC-Original-Maintainer`` field. This can be done automatically with the ``update-maintainer`` script available in the ``ubuntu-dev-tools`` package. For further information, see the `Debian Maintainer Field spec <MaintField_>`_ on the Ubuntu wiki.
