Description Micha 2017-05-28 07:16:34 UTC
Currently darktable-2.2.3 is stable and 2.2.4 is most recent version.
But both ebuilds say that 1.6 is currently stable. 1.6 is outdated.
1) Thats not correct.
2) I suggest to show these warnings only when upgrading from 1.6. Is that possible?
(2.x started end of 2015.)


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge darktable
2.
3.

pkg_postinst() {
        gnome2_icon_cache_update
        fdo-mime_desktop_database_update

        elog "when updating from the currently stable 1.6 series,"
        elog "please bear in mind that your edits will be preserved during this process,"
        elog "but it will not be possible to downgrade from 2.0 to 1.6 any more."
        echo
        ewarn "It will not be possible to downgrade!"
}

That is valid for each and every upgrade between major releases of darktable, i.e.
1.6 -> 2.0
1.6 -> 2.2
2.0 -> 2.2
etc, you get the idea.

Yes, maybe that should be it postinst instructions.
But saying 1.6 is the current stable version should be removed.

Come to think of it, we'll likely get 3.0.2 - in which the message in question has already been made more generic - stabilised soon so I do not think I'll bother changing this in 2.6.2.
