Hi: I maintain several packages in the OBS and in the IBS, and many of them are linked. For example, I am supporting the target-isns package. The newest version of target-isns is 0.6.3 as was updated in Base:system and then in Factory Nov 10 2015 (not by me). So Factory and Base:System have the newest version. But there are several other versions of this package, and they have diverged from each other at different times: Product Version ======== ======================= openSUSE Base:System 0.6.3 openSUSE Factory 0.6.3 openSUSE Leap 42.1 3 commits behind 0.6.3 openSUSE Leap 42.2 1 commit behind 0.6.3 SLES 12 SP1 1 commit behind 0.6.3 SLES 12 SP2 uses SP1 version But the problem is that the "target-isns.changes" files has 4 versions now! There are 3 versions in OBS (for openSUSE) and one other version in IBS (for SLES). On top of this, the new "interlocking" rules seem to require that the version in Leap 42.2 exactly match the version in SLES 12 SP2, including meta-data such as the SPEC file and the *.changes file. My only problem is that I understood there was a rule that the *.changes file for any project be strictly chronological. If that's true, then once two *.changes file diverge, they can never be exactly the same again, as no old entries are ever supposed to be lost. Can anyone help me with this "catch 22"? -- Lee Duncan SUSE Labs -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner@opensuse.org
