then add a prefix to the date based version like 'v5-2018-02'. That's a problem that is up the library team to decide which tag will be used. And that's why I asked about that. And depended on that also why I've asked about backward compatibility, if the current development of libs isn't backwards compatible than you need some versioning schema at all for the various libraries. For me it was a big fail that some libraries have been modified within a major release! That's not really user and distro friendly and breaking user acceptance in a longterm. Pleas think about Olimex e.g. as a company that is using KiCad for their business. And I expect to not have to deal with some important changes inside the libraries I use for a *stable* release of software that will break my local work! -- Regards Carsten Schoenert _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
