Public bug reported:
I have a situation where dpkg --compare-versions is reporting the wrong
status for certain package versions.
A simple example:
$ dpkg --compare-versions 1.3.1+16-0ubuntu1-0 gt 1.3.1-0ubuntu1-0
$ echo $?
1
It is the second '-' in the second version that is triggering this. The
first version should be greater than the second.
I spoke w/ Ken VanDine about this and he agreed that this looks like a
big.
