Quoting Jonas Smedegaard (2025-08-29 17:09:49) > Some upstream projects tag prereleases as 1.2.3-BETA2 or 1.2.3-beta.2 > or 1.2.3-beta-2.
...and some projects tag prereleases unnumbered, like 1.2.3-BETA I propose this regex which also covers that: s/\d\K[_.+-]?((?i)dev|pre|alpha|beta|rc)[.-]?/~$1/ Downside to this simpler regex is that it also wrongly matches e.g. 1.2.3-beta-max into 1.2.3~betamax, but I would suspect such tags highly unlikely to both exist and be relevant in a Debian context. - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ * Sponsorship: https://ko-fi.com/drjones [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private
