<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">We have an issue with the order used by Pulp to publish our RPMs.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">We are using a continuous integration process where we publish a new snapshot RPM with each commit, which means we have several versions of the same binary in our repo.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Each RPM is named with the pattern <rpm name>-<version>-<build>.noarch.rpm<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Which means we produce for instance:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">myrpm-0.0.1-1.noarch.rpm<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">myrpm-0.0.1-2.noarch.rpm<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">myrpm-0.0.1-3.noarch.rpm<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">myrpm-0.0.1-4.noarch.rpm<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">in our repo<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">The problem is that the “pulp-admin rpm repo publish run” command does not respect the build number ordering.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
