A> Don't suppose you'd have a suggestion for a better way of wording it? I will give you one if you can explain to me what it should try to convey: Upstream-version starting with a digit: mandatory, recommended, or neither? If `recommended', when? why? Ditto with debian-revision. During comparison of non-digit strings, the empty string always compares less than a nonempty string: true or false? During comparison of digit strings, the empty string compares equal to "0": true or false? (this one seems clear already: true) To help me in case I missed a question: is the behavior of `dpkg --compare-versions' correct by definition?
