When I put together the package for dovecot the source code was at  
version "1.0.rc17". I decided to use "1.0.rc17" as the fink package  
version number so that it corresponded with the source code version.

I am now trying to update the fink package to match the new dovecot  
release, version "1.0.0". However fink is treating this as a  
downgrade rather than an upgrade. I assume that "rc17" is being  
compared to "0" and the string "rc17" is being considered "higher"  
than "0".

What is the recommended way to work around this issue so that version  
"1.0.0" is considered to be more recent than "1.0.rc17"?

Thanks,
Michael Richmond
