It just occured to me that there is another case where we want to have different compare semantics. Consider what we do with APT, a bo release and a hamm release,
Right now we do: 0.0.17-1 0.0.17-0bo1 And .18 will do 0.0.18.1 0.0.18.0bo But it occures to me that with some of the proposals here we can do 0.0.18 0.0.18~bo How does everyone else feel about the '~ compares less than everything` idea? It seems like it could solve a few other problems - for instance what do the bo-updates people do when they recompile dpkg? They don't have the luxury of being able to change the hamm release number.
