Hi together, in special plugin developers ;)
We currently are in the situation, that a user just sees the Geany-Plugins version when reporting bugs [1] but in the plugin manager in Geany just sees the version of the plugin itself. This might be confusing when the user doesn't remember which version of Geany-Plugins he actually has installed.
Some plugins already have the same version as Geany-Plugins. This isn't that good anymore when a new plugin arrives in the Geany-Plugins project. Imagine before joining Geany-Plugins the version was 0.0.3 and after joining it directly jumps to 0.21. Here are some alternate
I don't see a problem here. In fact, I propose to do exactly this: all plugins of the combined geany-plugins releases should have the version of the geany-plugins release itself. Everything else would just cause confusion, IMO.
- change the version string for each plugin, e.g. 0.0.1-gp0.20
IMO way too complicated.
- change the text in the description (something like "this is foobar
0.0.1 brought to you by Geany-Plugins 0.20")
Brrr, nonono.
