><i> Hi *,
</I>
Hi!
><i> I wondered about this for quite some time.. When you view the
</I>><i> changelog when updating your system, it is very hard to see what
</I>><i> actually did change in that new release.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> For example the current cups update:
</I>><i> Version available: 1.5.4-1.1.mga2
</I>><i> currently installed: 1.5.4-1.mga2
</I>><i>
</I>><i> Changelog:
</I>><i> * So 16 Dez 2012 13:00:00 CET oden <oden> 1.5.4-1.1.mga2
</I>><i>
</I>><i> + Revision: 331722
</I>><i> - P103: attempt to fix #8318 (some usb printers stopped working)
</I>><i> - 1.5.4
</I>><i> - sync patches and some changes from cauldron
</I>><i> - P102: security fix for CVE-2012-5519 (upstream, redhat)
</I>><i> - merge spec file changes from fedora to deal with the new
</I>><i> cups-files.conf file
</I>><i>
</I>><i> + guillomovitch <guillomovitch>
</I>><i> - add upstream patches to fix #4673
</I>><i>
</I>><i> + tmb <tmb>
</I>><i> - Require rpm-helper >= 0.24.8-1 for systemd support
</I>><i>
</I>><i> * Fr 27 Apr 2012 14:00:00 CEST tmb <tmb> 1.5.2-4.mga2
</I>><i>
</I>><i> + Revision: 233546
</I>><i> [....]
</I>><i>
</I>><i> So what did actually change between 1.5.4-1.mga2 to 1.5.4-1.1.mga2?
</I>><i>
</I>><i> This time there is a hint about a major version bump in an update, so
</I>><i> I can only assume the change is only "P103: attempt to fix #8318 (some
</I>><i> usb printers stopped working)"
</I>><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.
><i> Why aren't changelogs separated by actual release?
</I>
This is not by intention, it is a bug in the build system:
