Q0: When checking in a few spec file chances I discovered, that the release and revision numbers are automatically incremented in the following way: 1.401-17.1 -> 1.401-18.1 -> 1.401-19.1. Where can I find any documentation about this behaviour, and how is the "Release:" field of the spec file interpreted? Or is it just beeing ignored?
This behaviour is expected, Release is automatically increased, and you really dont want to mess with it.
Q2: Where is defined when or how old revisions/releases are removed from the repositories?
Old revisions of binary packages are expected to be deleted, the system does not have infinite resources ;-) -- “First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.” - Gandhi Cristian Rodríguez R.
