it seems there are different opinions on this topic. At least the manual
says differently.

        Note
        
        It is good practice to always define PR in your recipes, even
        for the "r0" release, so that when editing the recipe it is
        clear that the PR number needs to be updated.
        
        You should always increment PR when modifying a recipe.
        Sometimes this can be avoided if the change will have no effect
        on the actual packages generated by the recipe, such as updating
        the SRC_URI to point to a new host. If in any doubt then you
        should increase the PR regardless of what has been changed.
        
        The PR value should never be decremented. If you accidentally
        submit a large PR value for example then it should be left at
        the value and just increased for new releases, not reset back to
        a lower version.

I am still confused about this one. That is why I still have not
committed the pkg-config patch yet [2]. Could the right way be
documented in the manual.

Thanks,
