LastUpdated package info

Sup Archers,

Is a package moved from [testing] to [current] considered LastUpdated at the time it is moved to [current] (even if it hasn't been modified since he entered [Testing])

xulrunner
LastUpdated:      2008-02-07

Checking the CVS entries shows that the last modifications were 7 weeks ago.

TIA

Re: LastUpdated package info

It certainly appears so...  but that make sense to me.  It is the date when it was last updated in the main repos.

Re: LastUpdated package info

Thanks for your reply Allan. In a way, it makes sense, I agree. But it may also be very confusing as the package itself has not been updated. In the past, I always considered LastUpdated to be related to packages changes and therefore to match CVS entries. Maybe In$repoSince would be more explicit.
