Hi,
do we have a policy about using the RPM epoch versions?
yes, don't use them. The reason behind is that it just moves the problem to the next level.
I thought the rule was not to use it, but the conventions mention nothing: http://en.opensuse.org/SUSE_Package_Conventions/RPM_Style#1.8._Version_Tag
Maybe this should just get added there :)
Or do we stick to Just Say No from the upstream docs? http://www.rpm.org/max-rpm-snapshot/s1-rpm-depend-manual-dependencies.html -- Martin Vidner, YaST developer http://en.opensuse.org/User:Mvidner
