For the 5.1-branch, change the version to ``5.0.91_YYYYMMDD'' so that it is different to the trunk (YYYYMMDD). thanks, Andrew PS: http://sources.redhat.com/gdb/5.1/{onlinedocs,ari} are for the branch while http://sources.redhat.com/gdb/{ari,onlinedocs} are for current. I might one day move them to /gdb/current/... but not today.
