Yep, if we want to fix it onto an official version tag, that's OK, just not jumping right to very latest version. We might want to move it backwards to better align with what we're targetting in the support Best I can tell the distros currently have these versions: - Alpine 3.14 - 1.6.1 - CentOS 8 - 1.6.0 - Debian 10 - 1.4.7 - Fedora 33 - 1.6.0 - OpenSUSE Leap 15.3 - 1.5.1 - Ubuntu 18.04 - 1.4.5 - FreeBSD Ports - 1.6.0 - OpenBSD Ports - 1.6.0 - macOS HomeBrew - 1.6.1 - Windows MSys2 - 1.6.0 Regards, Daniel -- |: https://berrange.com -o- https://www.flickr.com/photos/dberrange :| |: https://libvirt.org -o- https://fstop138.berrange.com :| |: https://entangle-photo.org -o- https://www.instagram.com/dberrange :|
