Description Jason Tibbitts 2016-09-01 15:30:26 UTC
I have nfs-utils-1.3.4-1.rc2.fc24.x86_64 installed.  But the first changelog entry says:  

- Updated to the latest RC release: nfs-utils-1-3-5-rc2 (bz 1369714)

According to the versioning guidelines for prerelease packages, the proper version to use would be 1.3.5-0.X.rc2 where X is an integer you increase with each build or update.  When 1.3.5 actually comes out, you can then use a release value >= 1: 1.3.5-1 and so on.

Not a big deal, but I was confused for a bit as to which sources we were actually using.
