I was able to create an IPS server for our out-of-box driver that allows our
test engineers to download/install it to their test systems. One problem I am
having is that our out-of-box driver version numbers are alpha-numeric.
Unfortunately IPS only allows strictly numeric version numbers. E.G. it should
allow driver version 10.15a. As it is now, the driver will not post with an
alpha-numeric version string.
Is this a change that may be forthcoming?
It's impractical to perform consistent version ordering that works the
way each package creator expects with non-numeric characters in the
version. As such, there are no plans to implement support for
non-numeric characters in package versions.
Why do you need this support?
