Thanks for the build notice, Doug.
Unfortunately, it appears we have a problem.
The Update/Install manager seems to do an ASCII compare, instead of a
numeric compare, to sort build numbers.
You can see it while browsing the list of updates, and unfortunately it
also manifests itself in the upgradeability-path logic.
Consequently, once you have installed 1.2.0.9, you cannot update it with
1.2.0.10, but you presumably could upgrade to 1.2.0.91.
I will raise a defect against Platform:Update (there doesn't seem to be
one already reported).
In the meantime, testers should pay careful attention to the build they
upgrade to.
Doug, can we rename the single digit builds to be zero-padded?
Cheers,
Brent
