One more significant detail is the ability to distinct official packages, composing distribution, from user-built ones. There is an option any_release_id for that purpose. Write down into file rdd.def, under our actual section [id]:

any_release_id = abcd

In such case version of all packages. built by you, will contain id abcd. It will easily distinguish the packages, shipped by vendor of OS distro, with the ones, built by local developer.

Example: xz_5.2.5-abcd_amd64.deb
