One extra issue is to ensure upgradeability of whatever existing scheme is in use to the new scheme. rpm epoch anyone? ;)

I've been relucant to change gcc from using gcc48-4.8.1_20130909 to gcc48-4.8.1_202388 for that reason. Unfortunately gcc48-4.8.1_20130909 is not upgradeable to gcc48-4.8.1_svn202388 so I have to wait for GCCs svn revision to increase beyond 20130909 ;) Or use a different separator (+ and . match _ but - would be newer).

Surely you can just wait for 4.8.2? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner@opensuse.org
