Some links to "previous version" seem wrong

[Lele Gaifax]

Hi all,

while browsing release notes to upgrade one installation to latest 15.7,
I noticed that while for example the release notes[1] for that version says

  Also, if you are upgrading from a version earlier than 15.6, see
  Section E.2.

and "section E.2" is indeed a link to 15.6 notes, the page related to
15.4[2] says

  Also, if you are upgrading from a version earlier than 15.1, see
  Section E.7.

Is that correct? I mean, I'd expect it to say "earlier than 15.3, see
section E.5"... The same happens on the 15.3 page[3].

Thanks and bye,
lele.

Yes, the wording and links are correct.

If you are upgrading from 15.2 or 15.3 to 15.4 there is no “see also” to
worry about.

The point of that sentence is not to provide a simple always-present link
to the prior release notes.  It is to warn about special update concerns if
the update is not trivial.
