linux-raspberrypi versions

Postby bbguimaraes » Wed May 14, 2014 1:03 am

Hi. I have been using arch linux on my rπ for quite some time and things are great. This last update was a little strange, which led to this post. After this last update to linux-raspberrypi-latest, the version number on the package says 3.14.3, however the installed path seems to be from 3.14.2:

$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '
$ pacman -Ql linux-raspberrypi-latest | grep Version
Version : 3.14.3-2
$ pacman -Ql linux-raspberrypi-latest | tail -n +5 | head -4
linux-raspberrypi-latest /usr/lib/modules/
linux-raspberrypi-latest /usr/lib/modules/3.14.2-2-ARCH/
linux-raspberrypi-latest /usr/lib/modules/3.14.2-2-ARCH/extramodules
linux-raspberrypi-latest /usr/lib/modules/3.14.2-2-ARCH/kernel/
')Is that how it's supposed to be? Am I missing something?

And a related question: shouldn't the kernel versions follow the linux package from core? If not, how can I keep packages from the aur updated if they depend on the kernel version?

Thanks!

ARM kernels don't track quite to upstream.
This one happens to have been a typo by the maintainer. (3.14.3 instead of 3.14.2)
