Why n+1?
Because it is technically another package than the one created locally. So you can easily distinguish between the last one that you complied yourself from the AUR and the first one from Community.
I prefer no change of the current dot release.
This was my first thought,too. But after thinking about it, in my oppinion n+1 ist the "right thing to do", because a community package is not only the metadata that describes how it is build (and even this has changed) but the binary package build with the arch build machines.
Hi Uwe, I was thinking about this too and I've to admit that my wish is selfish :). IOW I dislike it, but I've to agree, that the increment of the package release is the correct way to go. To be honest, assumed I should have build a package that differs to the default PKGBUILD, I anyway need to compile upgrades from ABS. It's just a minor annoyance that I might have to do it for a package, I've got already installed, OTOH I seldom edit PKGBUILDs and I never edited a .install. Hopefully everybody agrees with Rashif's paragraph. Now I'm convinced that n+1 is what should be done in the future. Regards, Ralf
