Have you looked at the source tarballs for the individual components now?
No.
for example xf86-input-mouse-X11R7.0-1.0.3.1.tar.bz2
the individual components are getting release numbers which a seperate
from the global release. In the case of the mouse package that
release is 1.0.3.x
I can see from your eg why it makes sense for rh/fedora to use the
package versioning that the upstream developers use, otherwise it would
be even more confusing.
...If FC ships some
components that match the versions in X11R7 and some versions which
are updates beyond whats in X11R7. Why is it appropriate to brand all
these things as X11R7?
I guess that the upstream developers could start at 6.99 ? for the
a/b/test/rc's and move to 7.0.0 at the time that the major release is
made, and then they could all free float from there on ?
Thanks for the reasoning.
