I won't claim to completely understand the regex, but looking at this

Apparently not.
The OSGi version must "<number>.<number>.<number>.<qualifier>".
I took all but the first number to be optional, but you're right, my
regex would cause problems due to missing minor or micro number
components.
Is this just replacing the first "-" to a "."?
Naively, yes, the first "-" following a number that either starts the
string or follows a dot.
If so, it won't be correct either, since "1.0-foo" would be
converted to "1.0.foo", instead of "1.0.0.foo"...
Yes, I missed the part about needing to fill in the missing numbers
before placing the qualifier. To do that, we'd need several more
capture groups, and we'd need to count how many groups had been
populated to figure out how many numbers are missing. That will take
longer than the five minutes I spent on my first pass.

Well, if you do find the time to get it working, send it to me and I
will include it. Thanks.
