On Debian, "2.065.rc1" is bigger than "2.065.0", so if 
"dmd_2.065.rc1-0_amd64.deb" is installed and you try to upgrade to 
"dmd_2.065.0-0_amd64.deb", system will answer something like "You have 
installed a newer version".

No problem if these deb packages are for internal use and test, but not for a 
public download.

$ dpkg --compare-versions "2.065.0" gt "2.065.rc1" && echo "Bigger" || echo 
"Not bigger"
