There are no pre-release tags, but you could probably do a cvs checkout by
date if you wanted to be sure.
yes, thanks for that - actually, that's also what I've come up with in the meantime, just checked the 1.11 revision out ... but a compressed download of the entire directory structure would certainly have been faster :-) Also there is -of course- quite a lot of CVS related stuff in the checkout.
A couple of minutes ago I created the patch, don't know if it works though, as I don't have the actual pre2-release installed locally, will need to wait for feedback - posted the link to the users mailing list.
This link to a cvs log shows the date/time that pre2 was finalized: http://cvs.flightgear.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/viewcvs.cgi/data/version?cvsroot=FlightGear-0.9
Note that this log happens to refer to the file that contains the version number. It's called "version" and is located in the base package directory.
Yes, sure - I did see that file (and also checked its contents) when I
looked for version information about the base package, but it states
only "0.9.4" - this even though I am _definitely_ using 0.9.5 *PRE*, so
having at least the exact version information of the base package
available would certainly make sense-including details about PRE-releases etc.
But then, also not to have to rely on cvs-specific files which would not necessarily be available in a release version and hence won't be suitable to determine the base package version in general.
