Copying of packages does not work for globalplatform ppa

Hi Karsten,

Sorry, I'd assumed that your binaries *didn't* need to be recompiled for the different series. As outlined here:

https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/PPA/BuildingASourcePackage#Versioning
{{{
Version numbers must be unique. This has implications if you want to provide packages for multiple Ubuntu series at once:

If your package can be used on different versions of Ubuntu without being recompiled then use the naming scheme already described. When you have successfully uploaded your package to your PPA you can copy the existing binaries to the new series; see Copying packages.

If your package does need to be recompiled to support multiple Ubuntu series, then you should add a suffix of a tilde and the series name to the version number. So a package for the Intrepid Ibex could be named myapp_1.0-1ubuntu3ppa1~intrepid1 and for the Hardy Heron myapp_1.0-1ubuntu3ppa1~hardy1. If you need to release an updated package, increment the ppan suffix. It is important to note that specifying the version name here doesn't change the series that you are targetting; this must still be set correctly as described in the Ubuntu packaging guide's section on the changelog file.
}}}

So if your binaries do need to be recompiled for each series (as it seems), then you will currently need to upload a separate ~karmic version.
