Hello,

The package release number should be 1 and not 0.1 as recommended in the wiki :

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_packaging_standards#Package_naming

It cause some trouble when you try to sort package version in the pacman cache directory (to clean up your cache for example).

This task depends upon

Reason for closing:  Not a bug
Additional comments about closing:  0.1 is perfectly valid. In this case 0.1 was chosen because it's a git snapshot. Current version comes with pkgrel=1 and released version.

Use pacsort for sorting - it understands version numbers

I have no idea what package you're trying to report a bug for.

Sorry, I suppose I've made a mistake when reporting the bug. It's about grilo-plugins 0.2.14-0.1

There's absolutely nothing invalid about a a pkgrel of 0.1.

Nothing invalid, but still against convention. Some people use it for short term fixes, but this has been months.
