Funny, I just asked a similar question on IRC right before this email came in. The answer I got was: http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-buildservice/2007-06/msg00062.html You might be able to do something like this. -- Michael -----Original Message----- From: Andrew Jorgensen [mailto:ajorgensen@novell.com] Sent: Thu 11/13/2008 11:34 AM To: opensuse-buildservice@opensuse.org Subject: [opensuse-buildservice] How to bump release numbers? We need to be able to force our release numbers to be higher than they are now. We don't need any control over them after they are bumped, just a one-time thing. Let me explain: Suppose we have been building software in one repository and we need to move to a new repository. Normally this would cause our release numbers to be reset to start at 0. We want our users to see upgrades though moving forward. Actually we rsync our repos off of the BS to another location, so for the users the location won't change but the release numbers will suddenly jump down. Now it's okay with us if to do this we have to tweak something in the backend in some database or something as what we're doing is moving from OBS to an internal service, but we need some way to do it. Also, are our users going to have a problem if the signing key changes for the repo? If they will have a problem is there a way to migrate the key over?
