I remember people saying the same when we jumped to 42.x just over two years ago.
But at that time the version number still incremented. This is not at all the same thing here. How many SPECs in OBS have a test that the version number is <> some number? I see them all the time. I can just imagine the mess when all these get built expecting to find features added in 42.x. Or, even more difficult, features added in 15. Isn't one reason a version number is, well, a NUMBER, and not a version phrase, is so that it can be used in these comparisons? And isn't the assumption that a bigger number is assigned to a release that precedes one with a smaller number? Given how prevalent these comparisons are in SPEC files, I think it is safe to say that it is a common assumption. -- Roger Oberholtzer -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
