There are no definite rule, indeed. But when a bump ismostly about fixes, it should be for master. In this case, upstream really seems to consider this release as only bug fixes; https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/dri-devel/2021-May/307025.html Some nouveau debug, amdgpu tests, and a regression fix from 105. Releasing so 105 doesn't end up being used a lot with a regression. And if you already have a doubt, state so in a post-commit note, to hint us so that we don't have to guess... Applied to master, thanks. Regards, Yann E. MORIN. -- .-----------------.--------------------.------------------.--------------------. | Yann E.
