Question about rpm package version comparaison for security update.

Hi all,

 

 

Sorry for my example I take redhat stuff but it’s easier for me.

 

I have a question about how versions are compared specially when the release part contains distinct platform releases : for instance el6 vs el6_2

 

On a host, I  have following package installed : samba_client-3.5.10-125.el6  , when I read this   RHSA-2013:0840 they say that the fixed version is samba_client-3.5.10-115.el6_2.

 

For me I don’t have to update my package, because in this case 125 > 115 regardless the following data el6 vs el6_2.

 

Is-it correct ?

 

Thant You

 

Regards

 

PMO
