Yes, but it has been a while ago so I preferred to not overcomplicate
the patch series more. There's also the complication that
(revision ...) might need to be incremented. Yet another complication:
minetest mods can have two separate version schemes: the
‘release titles’ on content.minetest.net, and the version they use in
forum posts or git repos. For minetest-ethereal, they are different,
and worse, the latest version on content.minetest.net doesn't have a
corresponding version on the forum.
Hopefully there's some kind of solution, and presumably
package-definition-location will be part of that solution,
but it will probably be messy.
Or maybe the solution is to ask upstream nicely to give every release
a version number and switch to ContentDB release titles if they
disagree.
Anyway, I'd prefer to leave these complications for future patches.
Greetings,
Maxime.
