That makes me think that a nice add-on to the lib and the PEP would be to provide APIs to translate a Python PEP 386 version to a Debian/Ubuntu or RPM ones - and any major packaging system out there. (whatever scheme we pick)
Wouldn't it be cool if the package that goes along with this PEP became the standard version checker used by ALL of these distributions?
used where?
I'm thinking of a tool, callable within *any* build process, for verifying that the version conforms to the "RationalVersion" scheme, for example. Especially, I'm interested in a tool that would automatically increment version numbers for e.g. in process development versions where each build needs a new version number (maybe in several places e.g. setup.py, documentation, history file, etc.).
