Hello packagers,
The thread "Versioning of Frameworks" on kde-frameworks-devel has led to the
idea that some future frameworks (coming from the kdepim world) would not be
part of every Frameworks release, and would have their own versioning scheme.
This is at the request of their maintainer, Christian, CC'ed.
For example:
KF 5.12 would contain KImap 2.1
KF 5.13 would not contain a KImap release
KF 5.14 would contain KImap 2.1.1
KF 5.15 would contain KImap 2.2
Why? Will other frameworks skip a release too if they have no commits?
The only sane way forward is that every Frameworks release contains
all Frameworks tarballs, regardless of updates since the previous
public release. Every Framework should adhere to the overall version
number.
This is the base on which you are building everything, guys! Don't
start messing with tarballs present yes/no/perhaps and version number
mumbo-jumbo.
In the past everybody was very critical about when a piece of software
was finally allowed to enter the holy ground of Frameworks, and with
good reason: quality and stability. So please don't make us drift into
a swamp by approving this KImap proposal.
Cheers, Eric
