Subject: [gentoo-dev] How to name xdvik-22.40y1 ebuild?

1 Hi all,
2
3 I've just wanted to package xdvik-22.40y1 (patch release of
4 xdvik-22.40y). First I named it as xdvik-22.40y_p1.ebuild:
5
6 rico% ebuild xdvik-22.40y_p1.ebuild digest
7 !!! Name error in 22.40y_p1: characters before _ must be numeric
8 !!! Error: PF is null; exiting.
9
10 Second, I tried xdvik-22.40y1.ebuild:
11
12 rico% ebuild xdvik-22.40y1.ebuild digest
13 !!! Name error in 22.40y1
14 !!! Error: PF is null; exiting.
15
16 Third, xdvik-22.40y.1.ebuild:
17
18 rico% ebuild xdvik-22.40y.1.ebuild digest
19 !!! Name error in 22.40y.1: "40y" is not a valid version component.
20 !!! Error: PF is null; exiting.
21
22 After all, I couldn't make xdvik-22.40y1 ebuild :-(
23
24 As far as I understand naming policy from Gentoo Linux documentation I
25 think xdvik-22.40y_p1.ebuild is valid name (pkg = xdvik, ver = 22.40y,
26 suf = p1) while the others are invalid, but Portage complains about
27 all of them. Do I misunderstand naming policy or does it belong to
28 Portage bug? How can I make an ebuild of xdvik-22.40y1? (I can name
29 it xdvik-22.40y-r2.ebuild as the last resort :-/ )

32 regards,
