# Just the numeric portion of the version so one can do direct numeric
# comparisons to see if the API is compatible.
+#
+# How NUM_VERSION was generated changed over time:
+# Before IPA 3.1.3, it was simply concatenated decimal numbers:
+# IPA 2.2.2: NUM_VERSION=222
+# IPA 2.2.99: NUM_VERSION=2299 (development version)
+# IPA 3.1.0: NUM_VERSION=310
+# IPA 3.1.3: NUM_VERSION=313
+# In IPA 3.1.4 and 3.2.0, the version was taken as an octal number due to a bug
+# (https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/3622):
+# IPA 3.1.4: NUM_VERSION=12356 (octal 030104)
+# IPA 3.2.0: NUM_VERSION=12416 (octal 030200)
+# After IPA 3.2.0, it is decimal number where each part has two digits:
+# IPA 3.2.1: NUM_VERSION=30201
+# IPA 3.2.99: NUM_VERSION=30299 (development version)
+# IPA 3.3.0: NUM_VERSION=30300
