Installer Framework doesn't handle letters, so 4.8.6b is out. Usually, the dash numbers are for packagers, not for upstream versions, I guess that's what Thiago doesn't like about 4.8.6-1 (and I agree). For example the Qt 4 in my Linux distribution is at 4.8.6-5 - now naming a release 4.8.6-1 is confusing and makes life harder for packagers. (Yes, not that important for Windows, but differing between Windows and Linux versions also confuses.) Why not just do a 4.8.6.1?
