But, for some library work, we will need to rebuild packages that are identical to the 11.4 version, and I will use links, but how do you create a "source link" that will keep the version number greater, than the 11.4 one?
You mean the release number? If it's a source link, the built packages will always have a bigger release number.
Yes, the release number will always be the same, that's easy, it's the "build number" that is the issue. When linking a new package into tumbleweed, the build number starts over and I know of no way to have it start at a higher number other than to manually rebuild it multiple times :(
Hmm, the "checkin counter" of the resulting rpm (i.e. the first part of the release number) should be bigger than the 11.4 one. Do you have an example where this isn't the case?
