when using convert-makefile, you should be able to specify a specific project version in the .make file you pass to the command, and this will be respected and kept by the conversion if the release is valid.

this works for contrib projects, but doesn't seem to be working for core.

I hit this "in the field" with http://drupal.org/project/opendeals

Relevant bits of code:

projects[drupal][type] = core
projects[drupal][version] = "7"

You get the error: "Could not locate specified project version, downloading latest stable version"

If you apply the patch at #1432302: Specify project/version in 'Could not locate specified project version' error message you get the error:

Could not locate drupal version 7.x-7, downloading latest stable version

Pretty sure what webchick is talking about is now resolved care of these two issues:

#1405736: Regression: make no longer smart enough to get latest release from non-recommended branch
#1432396: Drush make / Drupal.org make core specifications are different?

Is there still a bug here? Seems like the OP is talking about something else. webchick, were you using convert-makefile?

#1474796: Kill convert-makefile code is the better solution. ;)
