Hi,

And they are right, because this numbering scheme is broken.

0.2rc2 is indeed newer than 0.2 because the numerical part is the same and then 
the "longer" version number "wins".

For the future:

0.1.99 -> 0.2

Workaround for the already released package:

0.2rc2 -> 0.2.0 (just add ".0" to the real version number, this makes it newer 
again)
