It was pointed out to me that we shouldn't include version numbers in the NAME and DESC fields of the pkginfo.tmpl for packages that we are integrating. This came up because I have included the version numbers in these fields for the SUNWlighttpd14r and SUNWlighttpd14u packages.
Most components are not integrated with a specific version, so you might integrate version 6.8 of a component and through patches might rev that to version 6.9 and then 7.2 and as the patches won't update the package fields, if the version was specified initially in those fields, they would at some point in time no longer reflect the actual version of the installed and patched component. The Lighttpd package's DESC and NAME fields refer to "Lighttpd v1.4" and the packages are SUNWlighttpd14[r|u]. Patches can rev Lighttpd to version 1.4.19 or 1.4.20 or any other 1.4.x micro version, but they can't rev them to 1.5.0 or 2.0.1. Lighttpd 1.5 or Lighttpd 2.0 would be completely new integrations. So as we are integrating Lighttpd 1.4 it would be correct to say in the pkginfo that the package contains "Lighttpd 1.4" and that's the plan. If it's a question of consistency then I don't think there's any issue here, the DESC and NAME fields describe and provide a human readable name for the component that the package contains. In this case the package specifically contains Lighttpd 1.4 and always will. Thoughts, comments? Thanks Amanda
