GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 99693
Make version number match Gnome version number
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
I would like to suggest that the GARNOME version number should be bumped up to the current GNOME version number. That way it makes it easy for people reporting bugs and for easily identifying what is being installed.
Yes, I'm definitely intending to do this soon. When GNOME 2.0.3 comes out (this week), there will be a release of GARNOME called "GARNOME 2.0.3" and then I will shift the 2.1.x releases to a similar versioning scheme. I'm now somewhat content that we can shift to "serious" version numbers. :-) Oh, and Ross Burton showed some interest in being GARNOME's Alan Cox, maintaining the stable branch. Still up for that, Ross? Thanks!
This had actually been fixed as of the GARNOME 2.4.0 release.
