Any version that is X.Y.0.Z will be displayed as X.Y.Z which is clearly incorrect.

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=120153 --- Comment #16 from QA Administrators --- Dear Andy M, To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year. There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present. If you have time, please do the following: Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/ If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice. If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice. Please DO NOT Update the version field Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker) Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not appropriate in this case) If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION. To do so: 1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) from http://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/ 2. Test your bug 3. Leave a comment with your results. 4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to 'inherited from OOo'; 4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add 'regression' to keyword Feel free to come ask questions or to say hello in our QA chat: https://kiwiirc.com/nextclient/irc.freenode.net/#libreoffice-qa Thank you for helping us make LibreOffice even better for everyone!

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=120153 --- Comment #15 from Andy M --- Tor: "Naïvely, I would have thought that "CFBundleGetInfoString" exactly is used for something to show to the user, when they "get info"." You are correct. CFBundleGetInfoString is used when you select the application and do "Get Info" in the Finder. Unfortunately it's not what is used when you have the Finder window in column mode. That shows CFBundleShortVersionString. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

--- Comment #12 from Andy M ---
"...this is still confusing because for 6.1.3 seeing 6.1.32 may lead to the
impression that the latter would be a higher/later release version, even worse
if some version checking mechanism encounters such thing."
We have that problem now - that's what I'm talking about!
6.1.0.3 is seen as 6.1.3.
"Dropping the micro is not a solution because then nothing differentiates micro
releases."
That should be qualified: nothing would differentiate micro releases in this
one string.
The end user likely doesn't know about care about the "micro" number. If they
do know what it is and need it, they can get it from the About dialog or the
Get Info in the Finder (from the CFBundleGetInfoString). They have to do this
anyways unless they know how LibreOffice is creating these fake version
numbers.
Removing it from this one user-facing string replaces one problem ("Why do I
have a more recent version than is released?") with a "better" problem ("How do
I find the "micro" number?")

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=120153 --- Comment #11 from Eike Rathke --- Dropping the micro is not a solution because then nothing differentiates micro releases. If Apple per comment 8 arbitrarily limits things to three numbers AND the third number can't have more than two digits (which is a ridiculous limit) the only viable workaround is to concatenate micro and RC, under the assumption that we don't release more than 9 micros (usually 7) nor more than 9 RCs (usually 2 to 4), which would give 6.1.32 for 6.1.3.2; this is still confusing because for 6.1.3 seeing 6.1.32 may lead to the impression that the latter would be a higher/later release version, even worse if some version checking mechanism encounters such thing. That, or we completely change our release numbers versioning, i.e. increment major with every new release every 6 months, which is beyond this bug's outreach. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

It is a UX bug and you do have control over it - see comment 8. It isn't following the guidelines laid out by Apple. One solution is not to munge the number when filling in CFBundleShortVersionString (which is user-facing) and instead just drop the "micro" version. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=120153 --- Comment #8 from Andy M --- Interesting, thanks Jan-Marek. 1) 6.1.0.3 becomes 6.1.3 with the current setup which is clearly incorrect and misleading. As an end-user, changing this version number the way it does is very confusing. Since this is a user-facing string, why not just drop the "micro version" instead of munging it? That would make a lot more sense. 2) According to Apple, in the CFBundleVersion: - The first number represents the most recent major release and is limited to a maximum length of four digits. - The second number represents the most recent significant revision and is limited to a maximum length of two digits. - The third number represents the most recent minor bug fix and is limited to a maximum length of two digits. So the version number being produced here - 6.1.2001 - is invalid. (ref: https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/documentation/General/Reference/InfoPlistKeyReference/Articles/CoreFoundationKeys.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/20001431-102364 ) I could go into "why does the project feel it needs a 'micro version' at all", but I won't :-) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=120153 --- Comment #7 from Jan-Marek Glogowski --- >From "Technical Note TN2420: Version Numbers and Build Numbers" https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/technotes/tn2420/_index.html "The value for a version number or build number must consist only of '.'s and numbers and must begin and end with a number. Each integer value separated by a period is a component of the version. Version numbers and build numbers may have up to three components separated by periods. The total number of characters in your version number or in your build number cannot exceed eighteen characters." The internet doesn't agree with this document for the CFBundleVersion, but it does for CFBundleShortVersionString, which is displayed everywhere, I guess. Now quoting the configure.ac build configuration script from the source: # The CFBundleShortVersionString in Info.plist consists of three integers, so encode the third # as the micro version times 1000 plus the patch number. Unfortunately the LIBO_VERSION_SUFFIX can be anything so # no way to encode that into an integer in general. MACOSX_BUNDLE_SHORTVERSION=$LIBO_VERSION_MAJOR.$LIBO_VERSION_MINOR.`expr $LIBO_VERSION_MICRO '*' 1000 + $LIBO_VERSION_PATCH` So '6.1.2.1' becomes '6.1.2001' for Apple. This is a limit on Apples side, so IMHO NOTOURBUG. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs
