I just found out, that if you fit version length, then result is OK. SO maybe it could be fixed with this: n [1]: from kobo import rpmlib In [2]: nvr_new = rpmlib.parse_nvr('man-pages-pl-0.30-2.el7') In [3]: nvr_old = rpmlib.parse_nvr('man-pages-pl-0.24-13.el7') In [4]: result = rpmlib.compare_nvr(nvr_new, nvr_old) In [5]: result Out[5]: 1 This is expected. RPM splits versions by dots and underscores and compares them part by part. If both parts are numeric, they are compared as numbers. 0.24 > 0.3 because 0 = 0 && 24 > 3 Yes, this is correct, however it is like this: man-pages-pl-0:0.24-13.el7 and man-pages-pl-1:0.3-2.el7 The problem is that comparison is ignoring the epoch number.. |
