This was ambiguous because it was unclear, as MvL stated, if "2.5"
was just "2.5.0" or included
versions like "2.5.1" or "2.5.2".
How about having "2.5" match all 2.5.x versions, and "2.5.0" match only 2.5
itself? (ditto for "2.5.N" matching only 2.5.N for N>= 1)
If the first x.y release were called x.y.0, (does not sys.version
include 0?) then x.y would unambiguously mean the series.
This "~=" operator looks murkier than it needs to be IMO.
Agreed, though not likely to affect me too much.
