[rkward-devel] version numbers for daily builds

[meik michalke]

hi,

i've noticed that i didn't get daily builds for a while (ubuntu 10.10); the 
latest package i got was 0.5.5-0daily-3043-201103081339~maverick1. maybe you 
would like to check that on your machines, too.

i don't knwo about apt-get, but aptitude must to be baffled by the change in 
version numbers (to "0.5.5z-0.5.6-0daily-..."):

<snip>
m at yrla ~ $ sudo aptitude update 
[...]
m at yrla ~ $ sudo aptitude safe-upgrade 
No packages will be installed, upgraded, or removed.
0 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Need to get 0B of archives. After unpacking 0B will be used.
</snip>

it can be fixed by manually setting the package version you want to install. 
however, aptitude considers it a downgrade:

<snip>
m at yrla ~ $ sudo aptitude install 
rkward=0.5.5z-0.5.6-0daily-3052-201103201217~maverick1

The following packages will be DOWNGRADED:
  rkward 
0 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 1 downgraded, 0 to remove and 0 not 
upgraded.
Need to get 1370kB of archives. After unpacking 12.3kB will be used.

maybe we can find some more robust versioning scheme for the dailies.
