sort(1) from GNU coreutils does not treat underscore as part of a version number for `sort -V. This causes misorderings on x86_64, where e.g. kernel-core-3.17.6-300.11.fc21.x86_64 will incorrectly sort *before* kernel-core-3.17.6-300.fc21.x86_64.
To cope with this behavior, replace underscores with dashes in order to approximate their intended meaning as version component separators.
