Different packages that conflict (or, if packaging is done really well, can be installable side-by-side). This is like the postgresql packages that allow you to stay on an older version, and like MySQL (debian) packages. Basically, we get to keep doing stable releases of drizzle7 while at the same time having stable releases of drizzle7.1 and distros don't have to choose which one they ship - they can ship both and have a default or people can choose. -- Stewart Smith _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~drizzle-discuss Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~drizzle-discuss More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
