RE: [PATCH] ld-version: fix it on Fedora

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

The version number that's giving me problems is 2.24.51.20140217 which ld-version.sh converts to 2036931700 (20000000+2400000+510000+2014021700).

At the moment, I'm wondering whether we really need to handle more than three version number components. Another thought is that the comparison could be inside ld-version.sh (or a replacement) so that it can compare the array of version components directly instead of using a constructed integer as a proxy.
