I just stick now to the `cloned to grub2' bug, so Robert doestn't hit
me ;)

@Henrique: As you can see below grub2's update-grub is a bit different,
Upstream's one only has test_gt() as comparison function and Robert
modified it so it uses CompareVersions()
Even Robert's ported `grub-legacy's update-grub version comparison
thingy' checks only for greater (return value 1 of CompareVersions)
CompareVersions()
{
local a=`echo $1 | sed -e
"s,.*/vmlinu[zx]-,,g;s/[._-]\(pre\|rc\|test\|git\)/~\1/g"`
local b=`echo $2 | sed -e
"s,.*/vmlinu[zx]-,,g;s/[._-]\(pre\|rc\|test\|git\)/~\1/g"`
`dpkg --compare-versions "$a" gt "$b"`
echo $?
}
test_gt ()
{
local a=`echo $1 | sed -e "s/vmlinu[zx]-//g"`
local b=`echo $2 | sed -e "s/vmlinu[zx]-//g"`
return `CompareVersions "$a" "$b"`
}
This produces me this:

By the way: I know why again where these -pre comes from, it's the one
kernel.org used before they started with -git and -rcN-git
For lenny we should stick with the ordering of etch or so.
But for lenny+1 we should get rid of this old stuff in at least grub2
Today you get only official patches for -git -rcN -rcN-git and -mmN
and the -mm aren't handled ;)
I don't know where these others come from grub-legacy handles like -test and -ac
I couldn't figure out with playing with this ~ thingy how to tell dpkg that
-rc1-git1 is higher then -rc1
So it seems like dpkg --compare-versions isn't that perfect for official
kernel.org patch numbering ;)
