Fair enough, Shawn. Up until now, our Solaris driver builds had version
numbers like 1.00a, 1.00b, etc. but for future builds we will look at changing
the version numbers to something like 1.00.0, 1.00.1, etc.
We wanted alphanumeric support so that we could continue with the same version
number scheme that we had been using with previous versions of Solaris - before
Open Solaris was introduced. To meet IPS requirements, we will go ahead and
switch to a fully numeric version scheme.
I believe there is intent to add support for a custom version string
that's used for display purposes only, but otherwise, yes, it's best you
switch to a numeric versioning system.
