</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Hi!
</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Currently the updates policy [1] says that updates to a new version
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> should have 1.1.mga1 as release, and that cauldron should be bumped to
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> 2.mga2 on those cases.
</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> However, on the packages where version updates are done (e.g. wine,
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> flash-player-plugin, opera, firefox, chromium), doing that causes the
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> following chain of events on every update:
</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> 1. cauldron submission with 1.mga2
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> 2. mga1 submission with 1.1.mga1
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> 3. cauldron submission with 2.mga2
</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> So the pkgs have to always be submitted to cauldron twice (unless one
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> skips right to 2.mga2, which would be rather confusing IMO).
</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> I suggest we change the policy to say that package updates to stable
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> should use 1.mga1 release (i.e. no subrel), so that it goes:
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> 1. cauldron submission with 1.mga2
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> 2. mga1 submission with 1.mga1
</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> and no extra submissions or commits required.
</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Then, if some extra fix is needed, one does:
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> 1. cauldron submission with 2.mga2
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> 2. mga1 submission with 1.1.mga1
</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> WDYT?

If a fix is added in mageia1 again, the same fix needs to be added in
cauldron always as well.

&gt;<i> 0.1mga1 for the first we will use 0.2mga1 for the second, and so on
