Yes, exactly. The pkgsrc infrastructure, following norms establish by automake, expects a package to have a version and make dist to make a tarball named foo-version that unpacks to foo-version. Presumably you have set the version to 4.1.0 and did make dist and then put that in the download area as -rc1 (to keep people from thinking it's the release). That's fine, really, and arguably there should be some automated way for packaging systems to cope with that, but we first need a uniform naming scheme, and reality is too messy for people to get around to that :-) > That of course will not be a problem with the actual release. Agreed, it shouldn't be. > Thanks for the testing! No problem; thanks for putting up an actual tarball, which really helps with end-to-end packaging testing.
