[Bug 42777] New: Remove static list of obsolete stable versions from the test submission form
https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42777 Bug ID: 42777 Summary: Remove static list of obsolete stable versions from the test submission form Product: WineHQ Apps Database Version: unspecified Hardware: x86 OS: Linux Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: appdb-unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: dimesio(a)earthlink.net Distribution: --- The AppDB test submission form was originally designed to only display the 6 most recent releases because test reports for development versions older than that are not useful. When the stable branch was first added, updates to that branch were very infrequent, and users were sometimes unable to submit test reports for the most recent stable release because it had dropped off the list (bug 15419). To fix that, a static list of stable releases to always display was added to config.php.sample. This list could only be updated by sending patches, and as a result, has always been poorly maintained. With the 1.8.x series, updates to the stable branch became frequent enough that the latest stable version always appeared as one of the 6 most recent versions. 1.8. was never added to the static list, and no one noticed. With the stable branch now on a roughly bimonthly release schedule (https://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-devel/2017-March/116943.html), there is no reason to maintain the static list going forward, as the latest stable version will always be one of the 6 most recent versions. The versions already on the list are all obsolete, and should be deleted. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

Wine release candidate versions - that are not tracked by Wine Staging - mean that the latest Wine Staging release can drop off the list of available versions (see screenshot). At the time, of this screenshot, the latest Wine Staging version is 2.21 - which is no longer on the list of available versions... -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42777 --- Comment #4 from Rosanne DiMesio <dimesio(a)earthlink.net> --- This bug was about the stable versions, not staging. The latest stable version will always be on the list so long as the current release schedule is maintained. The issue with staging is new, and IMO, the problem is not in the AppDB, it is in the failure of the staging maintainers to update that branch. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
