Summary

to prepare the kmod repository we need to have the osversion added to the PKGVERSION to make sure than when someone goes from 14.1 to 14.2 during an upgrade the packages gets reinstalled (considered upgraded)

Adding the osversion makes it also easier for user who are running stable and current to deal with binary packages.

So the package name will be something like drm-61-kmod-6.1.92.1500025_2
I guess this is OK.
How will the transition (from packages with today's name) work?

yes, as for the transition they will all get an upgrade

Is addition to UPDATING appropriate?

Thanks

I don't see whyt it would be appriopriate, nothing is expected to be change for end users.
