</I>&gt;&gt;<i> while trying to work on the queue of update needing a push, I noticed

</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Since this has a specific meaning ( ie, used for pre release, or svn

</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> The goal is indeed to make sure the software is still upgradable. Until now,

</I>&gt;<i> subrel in subsequent updates concerning the same version
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> If %mkrel could take care of that, that would be good, but for now this is not

</I>&gt;<i> [<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">sam at localhost</A> mga]$ rpmdev-vercmp 1.6.17-1.1.mga1.i586 1.6.17-1.mga2.i586
</I>&gt;<i> 1.6.17-1.1.mga1.i586 &gt; 1.6.17-1.mga2.i586
</I>
I think misc meant using simply 1.6.17-1.mga1.i586.

&gt;<i> whereas :
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> [<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">sam at localhost</A> mga]$ rpmdev-vercmp 1.6.17-0.1.mga1.i586 1.6.17-1.mga2.i586
</I>&gt;<i> 1.6.17-0.1.mga1.i586 &lt; 1.6.17-1.mga2.i586
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> So, yes, it would be good if %mkrel would take care of that, but AFAIK it 
</I>&gt;<i> requires development. Would 1.6.17-mga1.1.1.i586 instead of 
</I>&gt;<i> 1.6.17-1.1.mga1.i586 be a solution so that the distrelease tag has higher

</I>&gt;<i> If I'm forgetting something important that invalidates what I'm saying, just
