Hi, Is not an negative feedback, is a side note but I realize some time ago that version with next is bigger than version without next [1] therefore we should find a way that the el8 version be greater than the el8.next version.

rpmdev-vercmp 1.el8.next 1.el8
1.el8.next > 1.el8
I already suggested adding requirement to do a release bump when building from epel-next to epel.
https://pagure.io/epel/pull-request/259
I find it important that new, compatible with new rhel build has bigger version-release than epel-next build.
I just tested
rpmdev-vercmp 1.el8.next 1.el8 1.el8.next > 1.el8
rpmdev-vercmp 1.el8.next 1.el8.1 1.el8.next < 1.el8.1
so rpmdev-bumpspec --rightmost is enough
Yes. If that would be required for epel-next build, building for epel later would automatically override .next release, even without any change to release.
That is because:
rpmdev-vercmp 1.el8.next.1 1.el8.1 1.el8.next.1 < 1.el8.1
