How common is a p or r prefix inside of a version number? (ex: 22.7R1 or 2.4.5-p5)
Would you consider 1.2.3 to be greater or less than 1.2.3a?
How would you even compare/sort version numbers that ended with arbitrary suffixes?
1.2.0-foo ??? 1.2.0-bar
1.2.0-a1b2c3 ??? 1.2.0-f5e0b3
1.2.0-tangerine ??? 1.2.0-lemonzest
The version strings are clearly different, but how would you go about sorting them in order? Lexically? Give up?
What do you call the individual numbers or parts of a version number (ex: 1.2.3.beta3)?
No, @ubuntu, this is not how you do #Versioning!
Who thinks 20220329.git681281e4-0ubuntu3.31 is a good way to name a version of a package?
