Hello debian users, I'm currently writing a small program in C that is supposed to show me which packages I have from woody and which ones from sid (my system is actually a mix of both of them). Now, a problem I am likely to encounter soon are the version numbers. Do the follow some kind of scheme?
For instance, package ssh ssh 1:1.2.3-9.3 If I had the version string saved somewhere, and an other one like 1:1.2.3-9.4, how can I compare them, is there a function that can do this? TIA Alex -- Alex Suzuki_________________________________. :: Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ¦ :: WWW: http://www.cynox.ch ¦ :: Linux shop: http://www.cynox.ch/isoshop/ ¦
