Tag: dot-before-repack-count
Severity: info
Check: fields/version/repack/count
Explanation: The source version contains a repack count that is prefaced by a dot,
like +dfsg.N
.
.
For proper version sorting, please use +dfsgN
instead.
.
Please note, however, that a version containing the dot +dfsg.N-1
(here
with a Debian revision) should not change to +dfsgN-1
(without the dot)
for the same upstream release. That is because 1.0+dfsgN-1
always appears
less recent than the original 1.0+dfsg.1-1
. Please consider the new
format when upstream cuts the next release.
