I looked at: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/NamingGuidelines#Non-Numeric_Version_in_Release but didn't find it there. Nor is it in: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/SourceURL Can you point me at the right guidelines? Also, rpmlint doesn't seem to have issue with Source0: not containing %{version}.

Why does Apache support LoadFile then? Or is it a Fedora policy to discourage using it? (It's not documented in: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/NamingGuidelines#Addon_Packages_.28httpd.2C_pam.2C_and_SDL.29 so where should I be looking?) > otherwise looks fine. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
