No, because those component numbers are specified by upstream - i.e. the BOINC project itself - not by Gentoo. But it's Gentoo that provides the OpenRC boinc.init and boinc.conf files - in the sci-misc/boinc/files folder of the Gentoo repository - not upstream. (If this were about files provided by upstream, rather than by Gentoo, an issue would need to have been raised with the BOINC project, not on the Gentoo bug tracker.) It's not Gentoo's place to change version numbers of the software that Gentoo packages, but Gentoo _can_ indicate revisions of how specific versions of the software are packaged. That's what numbers like -r1, -r2, etc. indicate. > Where on earth did you get that idea? I only said I couldn't see > what > to do, and asked for help with it.

You didn't write: > what to do with them all, and I need someone to explain it to > me. Would anyone here like to have a go at it? or > what to do with them all. Would anyone here like to have a go at > explaining to me what I need to do? and so i read "it" as referring to the scale of the changes proposed being too big, and that you were asking for someone else to put together a patch - particularly because people who need help with something related to a bug report they've opened usually ask for that help on the bug report itself, rather than asking for help in some other venue.
