[New-bugs-announce] [issue36296] distutils.version.StrictVersion objects cannot be compared with distutils.version.LooseVersionobjects

[Harry Seeber]

New submission from Harry Seeber <harry.seeber at gusto.com>:

The self.version used in Version._cmp is a List in LooseVersion's implementation, a Tuple in StrictVersion's implementation. Attempting to compare Strict & Loose versions results in a TypeError.

I'd like to PR a fix, but I'd like to know if I'm being stupid first :)
