Subject: bug#20137: number of generation doesn't always rise monotonically
Date: Wed, 18 Mar 2015 18:35:51 +0100 [thread overview]

Generation number is not always the maximum of all generation numbers
and so generation number is not always monotonic.
Steps to reproduce:
Lets start with on generation N.
1] install some package (you'll have N and N+1)
2] install some other package (you'll have N, N+1 and N+2)
3] delete generation N+1 (you'll have N and N+2)
4] switch to generation N
5] install some package - you'll get generation N+1 again
(you'll have N, N+1 and N+2 again)
