Hi all,
As suggested by Wayne, is there any objection if version on daily build
PPA become 5.0-alpha-{repo version} or 4.99-alpha-{repo version} ?
It will allow daily build to have a higher version number than 4.0.XX
version available on distro.
Thanks for your comments,

Jean-Samuel,
The main problem I foresee with using a 4.xx number is that users may
think this is a new version 4 stable release. We should try to avoid
that if possible. Maybe a better choice would be to use something like
4.99-alpha-{repo version} or 5.0-alpha-{repo version}. This would
indicate to the user that they are dealing with development builds and
should solve your package numbering issue. Anyone else have a better idea?
Cheers,
Wayne
