I'm afraid to say that a lot of packages I have do this. The reason is that I develop and build packages on Rawhide, then backport them to F-8. However when backporting to F-8 I have to bump the release number up, typically because I have to add an ExcludeArch: ppc64[*] for F-8, but may be because of other packing twiddling too. I wasn't aware that there had to be a strict increase in package numbering between branches. (In fact, I wasn't aware that Fedora even allowed updating between Fedora releases). Rich. [*] Although I suppose we could backport David Woodhouses OCaml-on-ppc64 patch to F-8, but that wouldn't fix the packages which are already like this. -- Richard Jones, Emerging Technologies, Red Hat http://et.redhat.com/~rjones virt-p2v converts physical machines to virtual machines.
