Hi Jonas, I have a small version dependency issue when preparing a patch set to stabilize the Presentation extension. I want to write a final patch set to be landed into both wayland-protocols and weston, send it to the list, and let people be able to test it as usual.
A weston patch needs to bump the wayland-protocols version requirement. If I bump it to 1.2 assuming the wayland-protocols patches will be included in 1.2 release, people will have to hack either the wayland-protocols.pc file or the dependency check in weston to be able to test my patches. If I don't bump the requirement in weston in the patch series I send out for review, there is a danger of forgetting to do it when landing the series. I would not want to have a release of wayland-protocols before the weston patches have been reviewed either. I suggest we make a wayland-protocols version number policy that allows other projects to depend on master between releases. We already do this with Wayland and Weston by having a version bump to 1.x.90 right after the release of 1.x.0. Another way would be to use even vs. odd versions like Pixman does. How should we redefine the versioning, add a third number or go for even/odd? FWIW, it seems pkg-config regards 1.2.0 to be greater, not equal, to 1.2 for instance. Thanks, pq
