Re: choosing the lesser evil - mednafen versioning scheme
2008/10/28 Julian Sikorski <belegdol(a)gmail.com>:
mednafen devs have released a new version today. It's 0.8.A, and
it is
newer than 0.8.9 (think hex). The problem is that rpm thinks that 0.8.9
is older. This seems like epoch bump will be necessary, but kwizart
suggested using fake version (0.8.10). I personally believe that epoch
is a lesser evil here, but I'm open for suggestions. What is so wrong
with using epoch anyway?
I would suggest to use a fake version too or to use a post release
version scheme (i.e. same version as before 0.8.9 but bigger release).
But among the two I prefer the first.
Bye,
Andrea.
