New issue 98 by [email protected]: RPM can't figure out how to increment
versions.
http://code.google.com/p/memcached/issues/detail?id=98
When we release -rc versions, we supply users with an rpm spec which
generates:
memcached-1.4.2-rc1.x86_64.rpm or whatever.
But the "rpm approved" versioning is really:
memcached-1.4.2-0.1.rc.x86_64.rpm
Which allows the final release to be:
memcached-1.4.2-1.x86_64.rpm
Which allows stupid tools like yum to actually upgrade the software.
So our specfile generator needs to turn a tag of:
1.4.2-rc1
into:
Version: 1.4.2
Release: 0.1.rc
... for the spec file.
