Hi,
I'm sorry if this has been asked earlier but I could not find anything
relevant through searches on the wiki and on Google, which is why I'm
asking my query here.
Gource upstream has released a new version as
gource-0.27-beta1-20100710. This is not accepted by rpmbuild for
obvious reasons. Is there a standard way to accomodate such
situations? I was otherwise thinking of defining a %{upstream_version}
as 0.27-beta-20100710 and the version for the package as
0.27.beta.20100710.
This particular release falls under the prerelease version guidelines. If
you want to include all of the information in the NVR you need to do this:
Version: 0.27
Release: 0.1.beta1.20100710
