<paul(a)all-the-johnsons.co.uk> - 2.4.2-1
- Bump to 2.4.2 preview 1
- Add support for ppc and ppc64
- Add label for udev-acl
is there any reason why mono doesn't use the 0.x revision tags
for alpha/beta/RC releases like everyone else?
Plenty of projects fall outside that naming scheme, it's unfortunate
but that is life. Maybe upstream will consider your thoughts on the
matter if you bring them to their attention.

/me understands that the issue is with versioning of the package, not in
upstream. The changelog clearly says it's "2.4.2 preview 1" and the
release number in package should reflect it, e.g. by having the NVR
mono-tools-2.4.2-0.1.pre1.fc12. It helps users of that package to easier
tell that its actually a pre-release, not a "stable release".
