Package: clang-10
Version: 1:10.0.1~+rc3-1
Severity: wishlist
Dear Maintainer,
as reported in LLVM bug #38998 "llvm-toolchain: Include Debian version string
like for gcc"
the version handling (naming) looks uncommon to me.
In comment #23 I listed all "rc" packages I have installed on my Debian/testing
(sid) AMD64 system:
root# dpkg -l | grep 'rc[0-9]' | grep -v dileks | awk '/^ii/ {print $1 " " $2 "
" $3}' | column -t
ii asciidoc-base 9.0.0~rc2-1
ii asciidoc-common 9.0.0~rc2-1
ii clang-10 1:10.0.1~+rc3-1
ii libclang-common-10-dev 1:10.0.1~+rc3-1
ii libclang-cpp10 1:10.0.1~+rc3-1
ii libclang1-10 1:10.0.1~+rc3-1
ii libllvm10:amd64 1:10.0.1~+rc3-1
ii libpython3.8:amd64 3.8.4~rc1-1
ii libpython3.8-minimal:amd64 3.8.4~rc1-1
ii libpython3.8-stdlib:amd64 3.8.4~rc1-1
ii libspeex1:amd64 1.2~rc1.2-1.1
ii libspeexdsp1:amd64 1.2~rc1.2-1.1
ii lld-10 1:10.0.1~+rc3-1
ii llvm-10 1:10.0.1~+rc3-1
ii llvm-10-runtime 1:10.0.1~+rc3-1
ii lua-socket:amd64 3.0~rc1+git+ac3201d-4
ii python3.8 3.8.4~rc1-1
ii python3.8-minimal 3.8.4~rc1-1
So it looks like "common sense" to have "upstream-version" plus "~rcX" followed
by "-debian-revision".
More correct to me looks a version-string (here: "1:10.0.1~+rc3-1"):
(1:)10.0.1~rc3-1 (dropping "+" after "~")
To be read:
upstream-version: 10.0.1
"rc" release-no: rc3
debian-revision: 1
As pointed out by Sylvestre in [3] he is trying to keep packages in the Debian
repositories
in balance with <apt.llvm.org>.
As I am interested in having the best packages in Debian I am reporting here
not upstream.
Thanks.
