Ryan Ernst commented on LUCENE-5863:
------------------------------------
Mike's check is great to build a base, but since releases are only added, never
removed, once we know we have tested for N, adding N + 1 means just checking
the version being released is in backcompat tests (which the test im writing
will check) and that the new version is new (didn't forget to bump the version).
But I don't care that much. I just am afraid of the smoke tester taking on
more stuff that is not testing the actual release candidate, but instead really
a test that lives outside the tests.

> Currently the versioning here is a total mess, and its inconsistent across
> bugfix releases.
> We should just generate back compat indexes for every release: regardless of
> whether the index format changed, even for bugfix releases. This ensures at
> least we try to test that the back compat is working.
