So do changelogs. But it’s not that hard to mentally strip away a leading [0-9]+: in a version string. Especially when we have monstrosities like 0.12.34-20130506-git0708090a-1 following. Which are *also* justified. Just understand that Debian version strings can be ridiculously long but justified in all cases. It’s the job of a distribution to Do Things Right™ and consistent across packages. bye, //mirabilos -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
