> the latest binaries didn't contain the `rc` postfix Because we don't care RC information at all at 0.10.0 release: https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/apache-arrow-0.10.0/dev/tasks/linux-packages/Rakefile#L44-L52
We don't use the source archive at dist.apache.org at 0.10.0 release but we start using the source archive at dist.apahce.org since 0.11.0: https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/2441 Normally, including RC information is better in deb/rpm packages. Because users that install RC packages can upgrade to the official release smoothly. I want to reuse `dev/tasks/linux-packages/package-task.rb` in other projects. So I want to keep the current RC support feature and treat Apache Arrow case as a special case. This is needed to release deb/rpm packages for 0.11.0 with the source archive at dist.apache.org. So I'll merged this. [ Full content available at: https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/2694 ] This message was relayed via gitbox.apache.org for [email protected]
