I've been poking around the GNOME CVS and trying to build my own updates of the various libgnome, etc. packages, and have made a little progress, including actually getting a couple to compile ... Something that's puzzling me is the origin of the source tarballs in the source RPMs for these packages. Even the CVS HEAD is setting only a three-element version number when you does a "make dist" yet the ones in the source RPMs have numbers like 1.108.0.90.something, and there is no CVS tag AFAICS for such versions. Are they arbitrarily assigned in the quest for sensible version numbers for the packages, or can someone enlighten me? Please forgive me if I've missed something obvious, I spent a lot of time picking through Makfile.am's and cvs log output and my eyes are tired :o) -- /* Bill Crawford, Unix Systems Developer, ebOne, formerly GTS Netcom */ #include "stddiscl.h"
