I think the convention on Redhat, and probably others, is to use -release. Just like I did with boost-1.33.0-9.srpm. That is, vendor updates don't use '.', they use '-'.
Right. But how are the changes reflected in the DSO names ? Wasn't that the origin of this whole thread ? There needs to be a way for packagers to express 'minor release with no ABI changes', but if the full range of three position numers ('1.33.1') is already taken by boost.org itself, even without *any* semantics attached, that's hard to do without confusing users.
