It took me a while to understand what this means, but seems this is perfectly ok also with our current way of doing things. This just means that Fedora/EPEL will only stick to a specific Drizzle version per Fedora/EPEL release. It's what I expect all distros to do anyway. So for instance if Fedora 14 had drizzle7, it will never have drizzle7.1. Next version of Fedora (is it 16?) would possibly choose drizzle7.1 and never ship drizzle7. EPEL would do the same, until drizzle is included in RHEL after which EPEL cannot contain any drizzle version. It seems all of this is quite ok (and would be the case also if we changed name, version to be drizzle-7.1). henrik -- [email protected] +358-40-8211286 skype: henrik.ingo irc: hingo www.openlife.cc My LinkedIn profile: http://www.linkedin.com/profile/view?id=9522559 _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~drizzle-discuss Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~drizzle-discuss More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
