Subject: rpm: Converting rpm to deb fails after "Bump standards to 3.9.5." - Error: Invalid version (double separator '-')

Date: Thu, 27 Feb 2014 13:13:47 +0100

Package: rpm
Version: 4.11.1-3
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   * What led up to the situation?
Upgrading rpm from 4.11.1-3 to 4.11.2-1 in a apt-get dist-upgrade run

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?
Trying to build zfsonlinux kernel modules for new linux-kernels. Building
this modules for quite some time no. Failing to build startet about kernel
version 3.13-3. It took me some time to realise that rpm is the culprit.

   * What was the outcome of this action?
Converting rpm packages to deb packages failed with the error message 
Invalid version (double separator '-') 

   * What outcome did you expect instead?
Build deb packages ;) - maybe a longer grace period necessary until packages
follow the new, valid naming convention



First: as a longtime Debian User I would like to thank You for Your work. I
love the Debian package system and try to stay away from rpm since way back,
but it is still a major technology for deploying applications and Your work
makes it easy to keep track on this mess.

To my point:

the latest release of the rpm toolchain (4.11.2-1) broke my ability to
compile the zfsonlinux sources with the "make deb" command. I understand,
that the "Bump standards to 3.9.5" now makes rpm mark the dependency as
"Invalid version (double separator '-')" because of package names.

Since rpm just enforces the new rules I fail to name it a bug, but the
upstream discussion at Red Hat make me ask You about the all new upstream
version 4.11.2-2.

see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1065563

So I opend this bug report 

Thanks in advance.

P.S. I am a newbie at reporting bugs. Please to hesitate to bump me in
another direction if this report "barks up the wrong tree"
