Hi all, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
In attempting to solve bug #29937 [1] I would like to add a CVS snapshot |
| 4 |
of the current net-wireless/orinoco driver - but I am faced with a |
| 5 |
problem trying to come up with a proper naming scheme for this new |
| 6 |
ebuild. |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
The current ebuild is orinoco-0.15_rc2-r2.ebuild, and the logical name |
| 9 |
for a CVS snapshot would, as I see it, be |
| 10 |
orinoco-0.15_rc2_pre20050516.ebuild, but mixing _rcX and _preY is not |
| 11 |
allowed by portage. |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
I can't go with just orinoco-0.15_pre20050516.ebuild as _rcX is |
| 14 |
considered newer than _preY. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
I guess I could go with a simple -rX bump, but that wouldn't really |
| 17 |
reflect what the ebuild is - and I'd hate to have to add either a live |
| 18 |
CVS ebuild or a brand new net-wireless/orinoco-usb ebuild, since that |
| 19 |
would duplicate functionality, add unnecessary blocking etc. |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
Ideas for a better solution to this will be most welcome. |
| 22 |

Sincerely, |
| 24 |
Brix |
