+<PRE>Le 26/07/2011 12:40, Michael Scherer a &#233;crit :
+&gt;<i> Hi,
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> while trying to work on the queue of update needing a push, I noticed
+</I>&gt;<i> that almost all of them use a &quot;Release: 0&quot;.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Since this has a specific meaning ( ie, used for pre release, or svn
+</I>&gt;<i> snapshot ), using this for updates is quite confusing, and I do not see
+</I>&gt;<i> the reason for that.
+</I>
+When it is used for prerelease (mainly in cauldron), the release 0 is
+usually associated with a svn or git rev. number, or date, or alpha,
+beta ... so it is not so much confusing with this use in update for
+official release.
+
+&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> If the goal is to be sure that the software is still upgradable, the
+</I>&gt;<i> whole %mkrel stuff should take care of that. And if not, we can rebuild
+</I>&gt;<i> in cauldron to increase the release.
+</I>
+We regularly used release 0 and subrel 1 in Mdv for the packages updated
+with the same version in official releases and in cooker (firefox,
+thunderbird, java-1.6.0-sun, ...), to be sure that the package from the
+official release will be updated by a update to the devel release or the
+next official release.
+
+we often used in such packages:
+%if %mandriva_branch == Cooker
+# Cooker
+%define release %mkrel 1
+%else
+# Old distros
+%define subrel 1
+%define release %mkrel 0
+%endif
+
+regards,
+Luc
