#1748: BLFS tools may fail to generate a script for some updated packages

     Type:  defect           |     Status:  new
 Priority:  low              |  Milestone:
Component:  ablfs            |    Version:  GIT
 Severity:  minor            |   Keywords:
-----------------------------+------------------------
 When treating dependencies, the tool does the full dependency graph,
 reduces it to a DAG, generates list of packages in build order and finally
 decides which packages must be built by comparing installed version and
 available version in the book. This comparison is made with sort -V, which
 does not make any difference between for example 3.0.0 and 3.0.0-RC, so
 that update from -RC to non-RC is not generated.

 Severity and priority set to low because we normally don't have RC in BLFS
 (but this occurred for gimp recently)
