converting on checks as you suggest makes sense to me.


And here's the loaded question:

        Do I parameterize strcasecmp into the {N,EVRD,F} comparisons?

BTW this whole implementation (I haven't started with N regexes yet) is
headed towards an addenda for
        
https://lists.linux-foundation.org/pipermail/packaging/2008-December/001085.html

I'll trick up RPM "version" specifications however you wish.

But please note that its quite easy to write

        # STEP 1: Match the string and capture regex parts
        #                      1          2           3             4
        #                      X     ":"  X        "-"X          ":"X
        %evr_tuple_match  ^(?:([^:-]+):)?([^:-]+)(?:-([^:-]+))?(?::([^:-]+))?$

into a LSB "standard" document.

And I'm perfectly prepared for
        Requires: N = D:R-V:E
specifications, and adding a 101st tuple to the {E,V,R,D,......} set too.

Bring it on! I dare you!
