You're correct here, but the proof is silly. 7_f comes before 7 because 7_f is greater than 7? The 'f' stands for 'final' and it is the final release of version 7. > I guess you're gonna provide some real life examples > to prove me wrong. No, as I said I wrote this down before hand. I don't have real life examples, but I'm sure I could find some. The point I am trying to make is that the person versioning the software is no you. You don't decide how the order goes. I don't either. No one does except the individual releasing the software. That means, no one can be sure. _______________________________________________ arch mailing list arch@archlinux.org http://archlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/arch
