The pkg-stats script queries release-monitoring.org to find the latest
upstream versions of our packages. However, up until recently,
release-monitoring.org had no notion of stable
vs. development/release-candidate versions, so for some packages the
"latest" version was in fact a development/release-candidate version
that we didn't want to package in Buildroot.
However, in recent time, release-monitoring.org has gained support for
differentiating stable vs. development releases of upstream
projects. See for example
https://release-monitoring.org/project/10024/ for the glib library,
which has a number of versions marked "Pre-release".
The JSON blurb returned by release-monitoring.org has 3 relevant
fields:
- "version", which we are using currently, which is a string
containing the reference of the latest version, including
pre-release.
- "versions", which is an array of strings listing all versions,
pre-release or not.
- "stable_versions", which is an array of string listing only
non-pre-release versions. It is ordered newest first to oldest
last.
So, this commit changes from using 'version' to using
'stable_versions[0]'.
As an example, before this change, pkg-stats reports that nfs-utils
needs to be bumped to 2.5.5rc3, while after this patch, it reports
that nfs-utils is already at 2.5.4, and that this is the latest stable
version (modulo an issue where Buildroot has 2.5.4 and
release-monitoring.org has 2-5-4, this will be addressed separately).

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded Linux systems through cross-compilation. The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text. Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following: 1) run 'make menuconfig' 2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile 3) run 'make' 4) wait while it compiles 5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot. Have fun! Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run 'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations. Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org You can also find us on #buildroot on OFTC IRC.
