Peter Sütterlin created a new topic ' Question about versioning' in the forum. 3 years ago

To get unique and sequential names for my RPM packages of INDI, I use the VERSIN.MINOR.RELEASE from indiapi.h (because the git version number often was aout of sync, similar to kstars), followed by the git tag as given by 'git describe --tags'.
But for the second time now, the consecutive number in the git describe has been reset without the main version changing.
So after 1.9.0-106_g95a492dc from April 18, I now get 1.9.0-4_g8cb8dd5c, and of course the package manage doesn't want to update to that package, assuming it's much older than the installed one  :(

How do you handle this?
