I would not use this version number. You'd be forced to either use a epoch for the real 1.0 or "1.0rel" $ dpkg --compare-versions 0.9u-1 '<<' '1.0pre1-1' || echo not ok $ dpkg --compare-versions 1.0-1 '>>' '1.0pre1-1' || echo not ok not ok $ dpkg --compare-versions 1.0rel-1 '>>' '1.0pre1-1' || echo not ok I'd go for 0.9u+1.0pre1-1: $ dpkg --compare-versions 0.9u-1 '<<' '0.9u+1.0pre1-1' || echo not ok $ dpkg --compare-versions 1.0-1 '>>' '0.9u+1.0pre1-1'|| echo not ok Which will give you a clean start for 1.0, otherwise you'll have difficulties if upstream releases 1.0a after 1.0. cu andreas -- "See, I told you they'd listen to Reason," [SPOILER] Svfurlr fnlf, fuhggvat qbja gur juveyvat tha.
