Actually, sensible-looking semantic versions seem not to be amenable to having
normalized versions suggested via suggest_normalized_version(). For example, the
legal semantic version "0.1.0-build+post" fails both as-is, and for suggestion:
>>> from distutils2 import version
>>> version.NormalizedVersion('0.1.0-build+post')
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "distutils2/version.py", line 84, in __init__
self._parse(s, error_on_huge_major_num)
File "distutils2/version.py", line 95, in _parse
raise IrrationalVersionError(s)
distutils2.errors.IrrationalVersionError: 0.1.0-build+post
>>> assert version.suggest_normalized_version('0.1.0-build+post')
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
AssertionError
So, some work might be required for NormalizedVersion to work with semantic
versions.
