Not a big deal, but I have understood we should reset PATCHLEVEL whenCorrect. According to http://wiki.sourcemage.org/DETAILS, PATCHLEVEL
upgrading...
should be removed when VERSION is changed.
My English is horrible but "should be" surely does not mean "must be".
I don't think developers reset it. Of course it isn't a problem.
Just looking into "udev" spell. Who updated it to new version (even last two updates) and didn't reset PATCHLEVEL? :-)
BTW, it could be fine if PATCHLEVEL was printed with gaze version (for example firefox 1.5.0.6-2). I think it is something in devel sorcery to print PATCHLEVEL but only with some special option. It could be printed with normal gaze version. If user reports problem with firefox 1.5.0.6 we do not know what patches are applied, when (roughly) he/she cast it and so on. If he/she reports problem with version 1.5.0.6-2 we get more info. Moreover I would like to see these versions in our ledger. And for example highlight versions with security problems.
When we update SECURITY_PATCH we should update also PATCHLEVEL to see the change in "gaze version".
Example:
VERSION=1.5.0.5 -> PATCHLEVEL=6 -> SECURITY_PATCH=4
Upgrade to new version: VERSION=1.5.0.6 -> PATCHLEVEL=0 (not removing from DETAILS just set to 0) -> SECURITY_PATCH=4 (never reset)
Patch with new feature: VERSION=1.5.0.6 -> PATCHLEVEL=1 -> SECURITY_PATCH=4
Security fix: VERSION=1.5.0.6 -> PATCHLEVEL=2 -> SECURITY_PATCH=5
Patch with new feature: VERSION=1.5.0.6 -> PATCHLEVEL=3 -> SECURITY_PATCH=5
Upgrade to new version with security fix: VERSION=1.5.0.7 -> PATCHLEVEL=0 -> SECURITY_PATCH=6
...
Just thinking how to bind SECURITY_PATCH=5 with PATCHLEVEL=2. Need to know from VERSION-PATCHLEVEL if it is security fixed or no.
What about SECURITY_PATCH (or FIX)=5:1.5.0.6:2 ?
Just idea ...
