I know --compare-versions, but I wasn't patient enough to come to 4.22.. But it 4.22..-3.1 doesn't look too bad to me actually, just funny.
Other posibilities: ~$ dpkg --compare-versions 4.22.3-1 lt 4.22_-3.1 && echo Yes Yes ~$ dpkg --compare-versions 4.22.3-1 lt 4.22=-3.1 && echo Yes Yes ~$ dpkg --compare-versions 4.22.3-1 lt [EMAIL PROTECTED] && echo Yes Yes ~$ dpkg --compare-versions 4.22.3-1 lt 4.22.--3.1 && echo Yes Yes ~$ dpkg --compare-versions 4.22.3-1 lt 4.22.+-3.1 && echo Yes Yes $ dpkg --compare-versions 4.22.3-1 lt 4.22._-3.1 && echo Yes Yes I like "4.22_-3.1", it looks cleaner than "4.22..-3.1", and has one less character. The only thing that worries me a bit is that this prevents any 4.22.x future upstream version. I guess that an epoch would be need in that case. (4.22.3 already prevented any upstream version in 4.22.[123]). -- Besos, Marga
