Chris, Frank,

I don't feel particularly comfortable with this patch. It works here on Ubuntu
20.04 with python 3.3 and Ubuntu 22.04 with Python 3.10, but I have to admit
semantics of this cfg language is beyond my liking and a lot is in complete
darkness here. E.g. how &&, < operator are working here. Delete both int
conversions and it'll not work at all. Keep one and it'll work well.
The problem is probably lack of time to go thorough all the docs on
docs.rtems.org to find relevant bits while working on the patch.

Anyway, if you have time, please review and test on your platforms.

I think you are right to be concerned. I cannot find in the parser any support
for `int()` which makes me wonder if `int(3)` is being compared but I am not 
sure.

Hmm. And I've thought cfg format is just DSL interpreted in python hence translated internally to python hence my int() usage.

Leave this with me and I will take a closer look.

Absolutely!

I think we will need to add a
numerical compare. Hmmm.

Another solution may be to enhance version string to print every number with two digits and with leading zero if needed and concatenate string together. This may probably work too even with lexi comparison.
E.g.

2.7.1  -> "020701"
2.7.17 -> "020717"
3.9.2  -> "030902"
3.10.3 -> "031003"

Hard to judge which approach is cleanest one.

Karel
