[16:08] <thiebaude> (Error ID: OOPS-09eade4d9e26cab4a976caf2930bdd35)
[18:26] <jimis> hi
[18:26] <jimis> I'm gettin the dreaded try-again error at least 10 min now, for the following page:
[18:26] <jimis> http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~vcs-imports/gcc/trunk/changes?filter_file_id=82199%40138bc75d-0d04-0410-961f-82ee72b054a4%3Atrunk%252Flibcpp%252Fmacro.c
[18:27] <jimis> I'm also getting it for many more in lp:gcc, but this is persisting too long
[20:33] <ambro718> when building debian/ubuntu packages, how should I handle RC (release candidate) versions such that the package manager and Launchpad PPA will recognize them properly?
[20:34] <ambro718> if the upstream version is X.Y.ZrcW, what should I put in e.g. the changelog?
[20:56] <maxb> ambro718: You should make use of the ~ character in the version string, which compares as less than nothing at all
[20:57] <maxb> i.e. X.Y.Z~rcW is understood as earlier than X.Y.Z by dpkg, apt, aptitude etc.
[20:57] <ambro718> maxb: thanks
