MDEV-28628: Change current Debian package revision scheme
Current Debian package revision scheme when using debian/autobake-deb.sh script is: '1:VERSION+maria~LSBNAME' For example if VERSION can be like 10.6.8 and LSBNAME is buster then version and revision is: '1:10.6.8+maria~buster' Which can lead to problem as distro code names can be lexical unordered. For example Debian LSBNAME's can be: Codename Buster is Debian version 10 Codename Bookworm is Debian version 11 This happens because in ASCII table Buster first two digits are 'Bu' and they are in hex 0x42 and 0x75 and Bookworm first digits 'Bo' are they are in hex 0x42 and 0x6F When apt is upgrading it means that: 1:10.6.8+maria~buster is bigger than 1:10.6.8+maria~bookworm and that leads to problems in dist-upgrade process To solve problem revision format is changed to: '1:VERSION+maria~(deb|ubu)LSBVERSION' Example for Debian 11 is now: 1:10.6.8+maria~deb11 and for Ubuntu 22.04 is now: 1:10.6.8+maria~ubu2204 There are new Variables * VERSION which contains whole version string * LSBVERSION which contains LSB version of distro * LSBID which contains LSB ID (Debian or Ubuntu) added to debian/autobake-deb.sh. Also CODENAME is change to LSBNAME as it's more declaritive
