An upstream package may have a fixed x.y.z and we can't use the -release
extension for packaging only changes.
Under Version, it already says:
Post-release packages: Packages released after a "final" version. These
packages contain the same numeric version as the "final" version, but have
an additional non-numeric identifier.
For clarity I've added "This mechanism may also be used for packaging only
changes to an upstream package".
Comments?
I am not sure I understand this. Can you give an example?
If you can see: https://projects.maemo.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=200067#c8
quote:"To be exact, it's 0.61.25-1.1 and the fix is in 0.61.25-2.1. (As in, same
upstream version, newer packaging.)"
If the packaging changes then the proper package version should be incremented -
right? And since the source is not modified and the -release can't be used then
a non-numeric should be appended.
