• Epoch change for cctools

    From Alastair McKinstry@21:1/5 to All on Sat Oct 12 11:10:01 2024
    Hi,

    cctools is at version 1:9.9 due to an error in 2021.

    The current version is 7.13.1 (https://github.com/cooperative-computing-lab/cctools/tags)
    I propose to move epoch to fix this; reaching out to debian-devel as per policy.

    Best regards
    Alastair

    Looks like a typo, afaict cctools currently has *no* epoch, i.e.
    equivalent to 0:9.9.

    Thanks, my error. I had presumed a default epoch of 1.

    Commander Vimes didn’t like the phrase “The innocent have nothing to fear,”
    believing the innocent had everything to fear, mostly from the guilty but in the longer term
    even more from those who say things like “The innocent have nothing to fear.”

    Hello,

    thanks for confirming. Given that upstream versions are unlikely to
    increase enough to catch up with the Debian numbering soon /I/ agree
    that adding a epoch is indeed the best way forward.
