Follow-up Comment #20, bug #45188 (project octave): Let's take the practical route. The easier I can fool the installer script(s) to assume a different version number ("octave-<version>-#2" or whatever), the less is stirred up. And I'm afraid I've already stirred a lot :-) So, adapting 'mxe-octave/octave/octave-version' seems least intrusive. BTW IIRC in makeinst_script.sh there's a ".1" or ".0" added to the version to have it contain 4 numbers separated by dots isn't it. Perhaps that provides a suitable route. BTW apart from the version check in the registry there's still the install directory check. So unwary users should still catch some warning. How difficult is it to add some counter ("-#2" or "-#3") to the version number once the registry check hits target? _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?45188> _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/
