Summary: Review Request: cernlib-g77 - General purpose CERN library and associated binaries https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=237579 ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2007-05-13 11:10 EST ------- (In reply to comment #3) > The 34 is because the gcc version is 3.4 which is not the latest. > Here the cernlib version is the latest, so I think that no number > should appear in the name. As for adding compat in front of the > name, why not. I'll do a try. The actual version of "gcc" which "compat-gcc-34-g77-3.4.6-7" is referring to is "3.4.6". However, all compilers of the "3.4.x" series are binary compatible. That's, I guess, why "34" is mentionned in the first place. It does not refer to version "3.4.0". It simply drops the minor version ["6"] which is irrelevant. If you omit "34" in the package name, it is not clear against which version the "cernlib" package has been compiled. E.g., it could have been built against some "3.2.x" version which is not compatible with "3.4.x" at the binary level! For this reason, I strongly support the inclusion of "34" in the package name as had been done in the case of "compat-gcc-34-g77-3.4.6-7".
