Hello, Why is version 1.0.18a.dfsg considered OLDER than 1.0.18.dfsg?
$ dpkg --compare-versions 1.0.18a.dfsg-1 gt 1.0.18.dfsg-1 ; echo $? 1 If not adding the ".dfsg", the result is as expected (1.0.18a > 1.0.18) : $ dpkg --compare-versions 1.0.18a-1 gt 1.0.18-1 ; echo $? 0 Is that a bug with version numbers which contain ".dfsg", or is it that I don't understand something about versioning? -- Pau Garcia i Quiles http://www.elpauer.org (Due to my workload, I may need 10 days to answer) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
