Why would we care about other distros package managers?

because arch or artix or whatever distro doesn’t have what i wanted

aur will take care for me if there are exist

so here’s what the 2: does

didn’t understand actually

either way, it’s go 1.19

whatever comes before the colon is maintainer stuff

it’s obvious

but 2 front of version

doesn’t makes sense to me

it forces the package to be seen as newer than a package with a theoretically higher version number

presumably there was a bad go version that had to be rolled back

hmm

It also happens when a software changes the way they write their versions.

Just read the fucking manual if you can’t understand it then
The version number is 1.19

i just showed him the manual

no, it’s 2:1.19-1

Thank you sar

It isn’t

2 is the epoch and 1 is the pkgrel

let’s see another distro repositories then

That’s the package version, not the software version. 🤦🏻‍♂

yeah

Why would we care about other distros package managers?

Debian, Ubuntu, and Fedora do it too

it’s go-1.19.fc36.x86_64.rpm

really weird version number

but more understandable

No, you are just an idiot

what does fc mean? feature candidate?

like kernel at the text “arch-1” or “arch-2”

no u

No, they use 2: and -2 as well… Same fucking system.

after version number, “.” takes next word

See, they use epoch and revision just like every distro on the fucking planet.
