I've complained about this for years...
It wasn't deemed worthy a reply, so apparently nobody cares. Ah well.
I care, but it's sometimes difficult to change old habits ;-( I hope to remember new versioning scheme for a next release. The last ALSA release versions ending with a character are just quick fixes, so just increase the package release version for your distro and add a small patch with changes.
Heh, I might be the first bad guy who introduced an alphabetic suffix at the time of ALSA 0.5.x :)
I agree, however, that a digit version number would work better for many packagers.
