can you clarify what you mean with "historical values/releases" here?
Would it include all currently active releases at some point in time
(i.e. everything up to F32/rawhide ATM)?
Not ontly currently active. Users also upgrade from just end-of-lifed
distribution to a next one. It must also cover at least one distribution
before the latest active one.
The way I see it, we should have a differently phrased requirement,
ensuring that within an upstream version of a package, the release of a
build in a higher Fedora release should be "newer" than of any previous
build (for the same version) in an older release.
Yes. You are right. My requirement was too strong. Probably stemming from the
fact that many packages do not recieve any version bump and the only changing
part is the Release string.
