Summary: update-rpms /mdk / versioning problem

Initial Comment:
I have observed some bugs with the numerotation scheme
of Mandrake.

1) Parsing : 
 Querying RPMs... libGConf2_4-2.4.0.1-3mdk.i586.rpm
Hmmm... libGConf2_4-2.4.0.1-3mdk provides "libGConf2 >=
2.4.0.1-3mdk"
  Querying RPMs... shadow-utils-4.0.3-7mdk.i586.rpm
Hmmm... shadow-utils-4.0.3-7mdk provides "shadow-utils
> 20000902-5"
  Querying RPMs... gaim-0.75-5mdk.i586.rpm
Hmmm... gaim-0.75-5mdk provides "hackgaim <= 0.60"

2) Comparison of versions :
libutempter0-0.5.2-12mdk           
libutempter0-0.5.2-12.1.100mdk (older) installed
  mkinitrd-3.5.18-4mdk                
mkinitrd-3.5.18-4.1.100mdk (older) installed
  mount-2.12-2mdk                      installed
  tar-1.13.25-11mdk                    installed
  utempter-0.5.2-12mdk                
utempter-0.5.2-12.1.100mdk (older) installed


In  all the "to update case", update-rpm is wrong and
the installed rpms are newer than the one it chooses to
update.

Well, I think that this is an update-rpm problem because
update-rpm conclusion is that 12.1.100mdk is older than
12mdk while this is not the case : the newest package is 
12.1.100mdk but update-rpm think that it is 12mdk

So, to clarify, update-rpms is choosing
utempter-0.5.2-12.1.100mdk  instead of
utempter-0.5.2-12mdk?

If 12.1.100mdk is truly older than 12mdk, then Mandrake has 
some issues when it comes to versioning.  If update-rpms is 
thinking the 12.1.100mdk is older and choosing the 12mdk 
over the 12.1.100mdk, then this is definitely an update-rpms 
bug.
