 apt-move is buggy because it doesn't recognize the new ~-

For reference:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2006/08/msg6.html

It *is* supported by all tools (except the buggy ones, they should be
fixed, like apt-move) and OOo is not the only package using it. 

[ Yes, policy need to be updated but that doesn't make ~wrong ]

Regards,

Rene

 Please see bug report #393530 against apt-move: it says so
 there and if the reasoning is right, its actually against
 openoffice - ooo packages versioning breaks apt-move
 (2.0.4~rc3-1 comes after 2.0.4-1).

This is nonsense.

$ dpkg --compare-versions 2.0.4~rc3-1 lt 2.0.4-1  echo true
true

2.0.4~rc3  2.0.4. That *is* the semantics of ~.

apt-move is buggy because it doesn't recognize the new ~-
