docs: Document non-transitive equality behavior of DistroBase
Metadata
Current evaluation
Maintainer-filed docs task: DistroBase.__eq__ does partial version-series matching, making equality non-transitive (24.04==24.04.1 and 24.04==24.04.2 but 24.04.1!=24.04.2). Class docstring and dev guides should document this. Unlabelled, no comments or activity for 109 days.
Suggested action: needs triage
Reason: The issue is a valid, precisely scoped documentation request from maintainer lengau: it names the exact class (DistroBase), the exact behavior (non-transitive __eq__ with concrete examples24.04==24.04.1==24.04.2 but 24.04.1!=24.04.2), and the exact deliverables (class docstring plus relevant dev guides). However it carries no labels, no assignee, and zero comments after 109 days, so there is no evidence of maintainer triage or prioritization in the tracker. Source inspection was largely blocked (git show/grep on craft-platforms failed with 'No pinned SHA available'), so I could not confirm which docs/_dev pages reference the comparison semantics — that, plus the ambiguity of 'any relevant developer guides', is the main uncertainty behind the moderate confidence.

needs triage | DistroBase has intentionally partial, non-transitive version equality; its class documentation and developer guides do not explain the comparison semantics. | |
