Re: bash-3.0-11, and [ITP] bashdb3-0.02-1

The upstream maintainer used the version number 3.00-0.02, which
doesn't play very nicely with setup.exe, so I named the package bashdb3 at
version 0.02.

Potential problem:


If bash increments its version number, and bashdb then resets its suffixed version number when it moves to the new bash version, your scheme will break.

e.g.:
3.00-0.02 => bashdb3-0.02
3.01-0.01 => ?????

I'd suggest using bashdb-3.00_0.02, to avoid this - i.e. change hyphen to underscore.

Max.
