Maybe this (still long) would be better: > > openscad-2011.02.22-0.1.git420c36603b.fc14.src.rpm Yes, the filenames get pretty long indeed. However, you have to distinguish between the upstream version number (2011.02.22) and the date you checked out the sources (not the date of the changeset but actually the date you cloned or pulled the sources). This way you ensure that the release tag of future packages with newer snapshots but identical version number is greater than the current one, e.g. 2011.02.22-0.1.20110222gitFOO < 2011.02.22-0.1.20110225gitBAR. Otherwise, rpm wouldn't be able to determine what package is the newer one. The hash value after "git" is optional though, and you can drop it if you want. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ package-review mailing list package-review@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/package-review
