Bug: 1.1.0.30 RPM for Linux has bad version number

Post by icydog »

The AfterShot Pro 1.1.0.30 RPM for Linux works, but reports itself as version 0. This causes upgrades to fail unless an explicit uninstall is performed first or --force is passed to rpm.

Notice that Version/Release are both 0.0 below, in the 1.1.0.30 RPM. This is easily fixed in the rpm spec file when packaging the RPM and requires no code changes to fix.

Code: Select all

$ rpm -qpi AfterShotPro_i386.rpm 
Name        : AfterShotPro
Epoch       : 174
Version     : 0.0

It worked fine in 1.0.1.10:

Code: Select all

$ rpm -qpi AfterShotPro_i386.rpm                              
Name        : AfterShotPro
