versions are not increasing

[dlangille]

The most recent release version is not greater than the release before it. This causes issues with dependencies.

0.201 was released after 0.200014

For example, on FreeBSD, we get:

$ pkg version --test-version 0.201 0.200014
<

Which means 0.201 < 0.200014.

Would you be able to create a new release please?

[rjbs]

Yes. This is an incorrect comparison, in Perl version semantics, but I knew that this was a possibility. I will make a new release.

[rjbs]

I have released version 1.000

@dlangille what tools are you using that result in that comparison being false? We should try to fix them, because they are wrong.

[dlangille]

I am using FreeBSD's pkg command

What makes you think they are wrong?

Perl floating-point versions (versions with no leading v and at most one decimal point) cannot be directly translated to integer-tuple version systems like FreeBSD's. The correct translation to an integer-tuple is to translate every 3 decimal places to an integer, so this version would be 0.201.0 and the previous version would be 0.200.14. However, if it does have a leading v or more than one decimal point, it's an integer-tuple form already and needs no translation. See http://blogs.perl.org/users/grinnz/2018/04/a-guide-to-versions-in-perl.html for more info.
