Inconsistent version numbering.

Vincent Verhoeven's Avatar Vincent Verhoeven
Updates seem to be going through an intermediary version number while updating, but the endresult isn't how I'd expect them.

For example, this was today's update process:
first update
Systeem - Regular Labs - Advanced Module Manager has been updated (8.0.5PRO => 22.2.18755)
Regular Labs - Advanced Module Manager has been updated (8.0.5PRO => 22.2.18755)
Systeem - Regular Labs - Advanced Module Manager has been updated (22.2.18755 => 9.0.7PRO)
Actielog - Regular Labs - Advanced Module Manager has been updated (8.0.5PRO => 9.0.7PRO)
Systeem - Regular Labs Library has been updated (21.8.25972 => 22.2.18755)
Regular Labs Library has been updated (21.8.25972 => 22.2.18755)
Regular Labs - Advanced Module Manager has been updated (22.2.18755 => 9.0.7PRO)
last update

Resulting in the following current versions:
Actielog - Regular Labs - Advanced Module Manager 	9.0.7PRO
Advanced Module Manager                             9.0.7PRO 
Regular Labs Library                                22.2.18755
Systeem - Regular Labs - Advanced Module Manager 	9.0.7PRO
Systeem - Regular Labs Library                      22.2.18755

I have two questions:
- Is there any particular reason why update is 8.0.5 -> 9.0.7 for Action log plugin but 8.0.5 -> 22.2.18755 -> 9.0.7 for system component and plugin?
- Why isn't the plugin version the same format as the library?

Yeah, that doesn't look good.

But I already made some changes in the installer messages that will be included in the next versions.
See what happens when you install the dev version of Advanced Module Manager (on a test site?!):
regularlabs.com/development-releases

The extensions use semantic versioning (like Joomla).
The library uses a date-time-based version number, as semantic versioning doesn't really make sense for that.
