Re: [opensuse-packaging] Proper version scheme for packages from git, hg, svn, ...

Quoting Sascha Peilicke <speilicke@suse.com>:

Ideally, that would be the result, yes. I'd like to have some (documented) best practices which are good to follow in all cases without much debate. Secondly, I'm a Factory reviewer and I can't recall how often I re-read the RPM version comparison algorithm because someone went creative again :-) Less deviation means faster and less error-prone reviews and thus happier packagers.

Don't read code.. use "zypper vcmp". After all, zypper is our only source to truth when we talk about updates (ok, actually libzypp). Dominique -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner@opensuse.org
