<div>Hi all,</div><div><br></div><div>We've been fighting a bit with the release system and have a couple of outstanding questions. Perhaps other users are running into the same issues.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div>
<div><b>Wet Stacks - Bloom's Debian Build Increment Number</b></div><div><br></div><div>Under what situations exactly is the build increment number useful?</div><div><br></div><div>I interpreted it as a minor update which forces a rebuild of the deb, but not an update which generates a code api change or bugfix (e.g, a dependency problem). Is this correct?</div>
<div><br></div><div>The second issue I'm having with it, is that generating a new release with incremented debian build number would force a jenkins build, but that doesn't seem to be happening. e.g. I have these tags in my release repo, </div>
