I confess to being a bit confused/ignorant here, and only familiar with the Debian arrangement where unstable tracks the nightly builds of 7.8.1, while stable has stuck with 7.7.3 etc. Nor do I know why 7.8.1 is viewed as "experimental" if everything works. So if, for example, logitechmediaserver-7.8.1-0.9.20140405git1396556579.fc20.noarch is just a package that tracks the 7.8.1 nightly and is not patched, then the naming seems OK, and the question is then if the CSOS project should provide only a bleeding edge LMS version, or both that and a stable one. Or, have I missed the point? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Krisbee's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=59080 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=99395 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
