Description Andrew Overholt 2008-10-02 14:04:21 UTC
Why is the release 0.<something involving jpp> when 5.5.27 doesn't appear to be a pre-release on tomcat's website?

Comment 1 Andrew Overholt 2008-10-30 14:46:20 UTC
This is fixed.

Comment 2 David Walluck 2008-10-30 16:02:43 UTC
Does the policy really say that 0 can only be used for prereleases? Anyway, it might not be an upstream tomcat prerelease version, but it was an upstream JPackage prerelease version at the time.

Comment 3 Andrew Overholt 2008-10-30 16:34:40 UTC
Let's get spot to clarify.

Comment 4 Tom "spot" Callaway 2008-10-30 17:18:34 UTC
You really should try to reserve the 0 for prereleases. If you had some overwhelmingly compelling reason to use it, then I'd probably let it slide, but it is important to try to keep rpm package ordering as sane as possible.
