Well, I don't have to look very far: among my own packages I find /home/tgl/f-pkg/libjpeg/devel/libjpeg.spec:Version: 6b It cannot possibly be a good idea to use something other than the upstream version number in Version --- the ensuing confusion would trump whatever rationale there might be for this guideline. While I hope that there will soon be a new libjpeg upstream release that uses a more typical m.n type of number, it's folly to imagine that Fedora can dictate upstream version numbering practices. regards, tom lane -- Fedora-packaging mailing list Fedora-packaging@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-packaging
