Well I vote to be updated, why ? global game servers are currently running 0.6.0, and by personal experience over several years (omg how much time wasted on this) these FPS games need to have the same client/server version, in some cases different versions won't work at all (ie. Urban Terror 3.7 -> 4.0 -> 4.1, Warsow 0.5 -> 0.8 etc). I just did the test of running a 0.5.0 client on a 0.6.0 server and it works, but a big and annoying yellow announce floats across the screen remaining you that a new version is available. I also talked with one dev over IRC and he told me that there could be issues when running different client/server versions. So just to be on the safe side this new version should be pushed. If not then probably we will need to do it later as an update if any problems arise. I commit my self to test the new version, I know very well how this game works. >>> IINM we have some kind of exception regarding games for their client/server >>> relation regarding updates vs backports? if so, then perhaps we could have >>> the >>> same policy wrt updates to version freeze? >> Yes, we do.

I'm not about to be okay with that, a version Freeze only accepts updates on bug fixes and security warnings, so RC to Release is OK but not to revision's change, otherwise that would mean that if fate xonotic in version 0.7 just before the Release we should built. To me this should be pushed Backport, to limit the update after Release Cheers Xavier

Re: [Mageia-dev] NVidia fallback to Nouveau after latest Kernel updates
yes and last night after installing the new kernel 3.3.0rc, dkms fails to build dkms-nvidia for this kernel.

Hi,
sorry I'm apprentice packager !
So on all spec Mageia that I've seen, macro %{_install} and macro
%{_mkdir_p} are not used, but if it's better, I can remake that.
Which difference in install and %{_install} and mkdir -p and %{_mkdir_p} ?
Xavier
