You should name the ebuild ctwm-3.7_alpha4.ebuild, but you're fetching it in the proper manner. Future revisions would be ctwm-3.7_alpha4-r#.ebuild. " Any of these suffixes may be immediately followed by a non-zero positive integer, e.g., linux-2.4.0_pre10. Assuming identical version parts, the suffixes are ordered as follows (lower means older): _alpha < _beta < _pre < _rc < (no suffix) < _p " http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/policy.xml -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
