    <thetext>In the results&apos; database, one of the fields that define unique configurations is the &quot;version&quot; field. For Apple ports, they&apos;re usually tied to the operating system version, which makes sense as that&apos;s how its queues are organized. For example, Tahoe, Sonoma, Sequoia, etc.

Meanwhile, for Linux ports, currently this fields uses the kernel version, from `host_platform().version()`: Tools/Scripts/webkitpy/results/upload.py:131 

https://github.com/WebKit/WebKit/blob/69464e0cbba0ed8a83f4ee00f5d41d84c5ebb5d4/Tools/Scripts/webkitpy/results/upload.py#L131

As kernel updates are quite common, this results in the same bot generating multiple configurations over time, making it hard to get a single trail for a single bot.

Instead, WPE and GTK should use a more stable number. For example:

- Major API version? (Most stable option)
- Major+Minor version? (New configurations every ~6 months)
- Bot Image version? (Might be subject to frequent updates too, though)</thetext>
