Oh, those "6497" is not a version number, having complicated strict will not help in any way. What may actually help is just a simple script, that will perform `makepkg -g` and update the PKGBUILD if necessary. Then, if the file is actual valid rpm channges may be automatically commited and maybe even pushed. -- Regards, Pasha Big Data Tools @ JetBrains
