[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#842815: Help needed for HDF5 1.10 transition of libsis-jhdf5-java

[Bernd Rinn]

Hello Andreas,

The versioning is <year>.<month>.<patch level>. So the next release will be something like 18.09.0 or 18.10.0. If you call the pre-release 18.08, you will be fine.

All the best,
Bernd
