[Desktop-packages] [Bug 2007702] Re: [SRU] Deb version numbering is misleading
One of the possible impacts of bumping the version like this is that if
a user has a local deb of chromium-browser installed that is higher than
the current version, the new epoch will cause them to be upgraded to the
transitional package that they had already opted out of.
This should be called out and the pros and cons weighed in the bug

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 2007702] Re: [SRU] Deb version numbering is misleading
While I see Julian's point, I believe it's better to stick to the same versioning scheme used in the Firefox deb, which is exactly what you did for Noble: firefox | 1:1snap1-0ubuntu2 | jammy | source, amd64, arm64, armhf firefox | 1:1snap1-0ubuntu3 | lunar | source, amd64, arm64, armhf firefox | 1:1snap1-0ubuntu3 | mantic | source, amd64, arm64, armhf firefox | 1:1snap1-0ubuntu3 | noble | source, amd64, arm64, armhf As Athos said above, I'm not entirely sure how "SRU-able" this is, but either way, I went ahead and uploaded the debdiffs (after a minor typo fix).

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 2007702] Re: [SRU] Deb version numbering is misleading
Thanks, Nathan. Would you mind filing the SRU paperwork as per the template at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates#SRU_Bug_Template ? I am unsure if this would be suitable for an SRU, but that's for the SRU team to assess and decide. Moreover, I see that you are using the same version for all the proposed patches. If you check item 4.1 in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates#Procedure, it states that, for SRUs, the version number should not conflict with any later and future version in other Ubuntu releases. Could you please fix the version numbers for each release? Check the versions in jammy and focal for an example of how this could be done. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to chromium-browser in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2007702 Title: [SRU] Deb version numbering is misleading Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in chromium-browser source package in Focal: New Status in chromium-browser source package in Jammy: New Status in chromium-browser source package in Lunar: New Status in chromium-browser source package in Mantic: New Bug description: For Ubuntu >= Focal the transitional debs are frozen at the version number 1:85...
