--- Comment #11 from Eike Rathke <er...@redhat.com> ---
Dropping the micro is not a solution because then nothing differentiates micro
releases.

If Apple per comment 8 arbitrarily limits things to three numbers AND the third
number can't have more than two digits (which is a ridiculous limit) the only
viable workaround is to concatenate micro and RC, under the assumption that we
don't release more than 9 micros (usually 7) nor more than 9 RCs (usually 2 to
4), which would give 6.1.32 for 6.1.3.2; this is still confusing because for
6.1.3 seeing 6.1.32 may lead to the impression that the latter would be a
higher/later release version, even worse if some version checking mechanism
encounters such thing.

That, or we completely change our release numbers versioning, i.e. increment
major with every new release every 6 months, which is beyond this bug's
outreach.
