&gt;<i> Hi *,
</I>
Hi!

&gt;<i> I wondered about this for quite some time.. When you view the
</I>&gt;<i> changelog when updating your system, it is very hard to see what
</I>&gt;<i> actually did change in that new release.
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> For example the current cups update:
</I>&gt;<i> Version available: 1.5.4-1.1.mga2
</I>&gt;<i> currently installed: 1.5.4-1.mga2
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> Changelog:
</I>&gt;<i>        * So 16 Dez 2012 13:00:00 CET oden &lt;oden&gt; 1.5.4-1.1.mga2
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i>         + Revision: 331722
</I>&gt;<i>         - P103: attempt to fix #8318 (some usb printers stopped working)
</I>&gt;<i>         - 1.5.4
</I>&gt;<i>         - sync patches and some changes from cauldron
</I>&gt;<i>         - P102: security fix for CVE-2012-5519 (upstream, redhat)
</I>&gt;<i>         - merge spec file changes from fedora to deal with the new
</I>&gt;<i> cups-files.conf file
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i>           + guillomovitch &lt;guillomovitch&gt;
</I>&gt;<i>             - add upstream patches to fix #4673
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i>           + tmb &lt;tmb&gt;
</I>&gt;<i>             - Require rpm-helper &gt;= 0.24.8-1 for systemd support
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i>         * Fr 27 Apr 2012 14:00:00 CEST tmb &lt;tmb&gt; 1.5.2-4.mga2
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i>         + Revision: 233546
</I>&gt;<i> [....]
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> So what did actually change between 1.5.4-1.mga2 to 1.5.4-1.1.mga2?
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> This time there is a hint about a major version bump in an update, so
</I>&gt;<i> I can only assume the change is only &quot;P103: attempt to fix #8318 (some
</I>&gt;<i> usb printers stopped working)&quot;
</I>&gt;<i> (what does P# stand for btw? Is there a list of annotations used in changelogs?)
</I>
P103 means Patch #103 (it is in arbitrary number and not meaningful for
end users). No list that I know of.

&gt;<i> Why aren't changelogs separated by actual release?
</I>
This is not by intention, it is a bug in the build system:
