I can't reopen this, perhaps because the original branch was deleted. Anyway,
I'm at least willing to discuss and certainly not directly opposed if somebody
wants to open a new PR. Not because Fedora this or that but because I think
symmetry makes sense: if we have a way force sorting one way, t
Also, as for the reason this was closed:

Note that when creating Fedora policies and guidelines, the FPC is forced to
make it work with the current version
@ignatenkobrain I'm not against this, I'm just sad that bad versioning is a
thing.

Hey, this was just pointed out to me, and it seems to perfectly provide a
solution to a problem.
As many might be aware, the Fedora packaging committee has periodically taken
up the issue of using tilde Version:. And I've been putting in a load of
effort trying to come up with a consistent sch
I mean if we have tilde, there is a need to have operator which is doing
opposite -- that is caret ;)

I can go further with some worse examples like openssl ;)
`1.1.0+gitdeadbeef > 1.1.0a`

@ignatenkobrain That's why you're supposed to do something like
`1.2+git20180101.deadbeef`, so that it sorts lower than `1.2.1`.

@ffesti @pmatilai we've discussed this roughly a bit today during our FPC
meeting and we pretty much agreed that it would be very good to have this in
RPM. Because right now when you want to make post-release snapshot, you would
use `1.2+20180101.deadbeef` and then if upstream releases `1.2.1`,
OK, looks like Fedora is going for a policy that works with the current version
compare. If version and release strings are chosen with some care (which they
have to be anyway) I do not really see an immediate need for this. Closing for
now.
