[Suggestion] Prepare to deal with sailfishos/ssu PR #16

[Olf0]

DESCRIPTION

An unannounced and unreleased Sailfish OS version ("4.6") will change the way versions are handled in the ssu utility.

I imagine this may have an impact on how Installer handles/must handle OBS repository information, hence this issue.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

• Add major and minor release versions in repo variables sailfishos/ssu#16
• https://irclogs.sailfishos.org/logs/%23sailfishos/%23sailfishos.2024-04-11.log.html

Please use sailfishos-chum/sailfishos-chum-gui#270 as the main, tracking issue for this.

This has been addressed in the SailfishOS:Chum GUI app as well as the SailfishOS:Chum GUI Installer and the Storeman Installer.

It still needs to be thoroughly checked if Storeman should to be adapted, or if it never sets or queries its own download (OBS-) repository and leaves setting this repo to the Storeman Installer (which is already adapted); in the latter case there is nothing to do than to close this issue with appropriate reasoning.

Likely that (i.e. "nothing to do") is the case, because both search terms build.sailfishos.org and build.merproject.org yield no hit in source code (only the README.md):
