I would like to be certain of the release numbering scheme before allowing “zypper dup” to update packages. Zypper seems to choose the higher release number as the update ie. -30.1 over -3.1.2 so, if -30.1 is the highest/newer release, no problem.
In this example of two like package versions, which release is highest/newer?
Linphone 3.4.3**-30.1** <CI_CNT>.<B_CNT>
Linphone 3.4.3**-3.1.2 **{?release_prefix}.<CI_CNT>.<B_CNT> (I’m guessing at this)
Though I’ve found links for package naming, reference of which release number is considered highest/newer eludes me (link’s anyone?). http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Buil...ips_and_Tricks
Release: <CI_CNT>.<B_CNT> where CI_CNT is a number of commits and B_CNT is a number of rebuilds
Thank you, it eludes me no longer.
As expected, the command proves the higher numbered release is newer, regardless of the use of 2 (-30.1) or 3 (-3.1.2) sets of numbers.
