  • Patch Set #2, Line 360: #strip dirty version info

    Well it makes doing "development" against libflashrom more difficult. […]

    Unconditionally stripping a -dirty defeats the purpose of a -dirty.
    However, it seems futile to argue, if we have to drop 80% of the
    version information anyway.

    If many people use pkgconfig during development, I wonder why nobody
    fixes it? The original argument was to make the version "numbers"
    comparable. But in-development versions are not comparable anyway.
    It just makes no sense...

    How about we make the dash-stripping a development option? Or even
    set the version to 99.99 for anything in development? I'd like to
    avoid that anyone accidentally builds something that looks like a
    release but isn't.
