Why? Let's take an example applying right now: suppose module X is using the Qt private API. As such, it always releases alongside the Qt main releases. Its current version is, therefore, 5.3.1. Suppose they have a bugfix they want to release in the next two weeks or so. That will be 5.3.1.1. Then we'll have the main Qt 5.3.2. Since this module is using the Qt private API, it *must* release again, so its version will be 5.3.2. If they fail to release, we conclude that 5.3.1.1 does *not* work with 5.3.2, since it uses the private API and failed to update. Remember: private API can change at any time and break anywhere. -- Thiago Macieira - thiago.macieira (AT) intel.com Software Architect - Intel Open Source Technology Center _______________________________________________ Development mailing list Development@qt-project.org http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/development
