That seems problematic for various reasons:
- when I build a test rpm (which is one reason for the test tarball), it
would end up with a name like project-3.3.0-test1-1.tar.gz
- looking at this doc, it is not clear if it will take `3.3.0-test1' as
the version, or if it will be `3.3.0' and release will be `test1':
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Archive:Tools/RPM/VersionComparison
and in any case, 3.3.0-test1 > 3.3.0, while 3.3.0 = 3.3.0, so in no case
can I see how to make a version that is < 3.3.0
The way you should do it is use 3.3.0 for the version and 0.X.test1%{dist}
for the release, where X is a number that gets incremented for each test1
build.
