Instance Method Details

#compare_values(s1, s2) ⇒ Object

this method is a native implementation of the compare_values function in rpm’s python bindings, found in python/header-py.c, as used by rpm.

def compare_values(s1, s2)
  return 0 if s1.nil? && s2.nil?

  rpmvercmp(s1, s2)
end

#rpm_compare_evr(should, is) ⇒ Object

how rpm compares two package versions: rpmUtils.miscutils.compareEVR(), which massages data types and then calls rpm.labelCompare(), found in rpm.git/python/header-py.c, which sets epoch to 0 if null, then compares epoch, then ver, then rel using compare_values() and returns the first non-0 result, else 0. This function combines the logic of compareEVR() and labelCompare().

“version_should” can be v, v-r, or e:v-r. “version_is” will always be at least v-r, can be e:v-r

return 1: a is newer than b

 0: a and b are the same version
-1: b is newer than a

#rpm_parse_evr(full_version) ⇒ Object

#rpmvercmp(str1, str2) ⇒ Object

This is an attempt at implementing RPM’s lib/rpmvercmp.c rpmvercmp(a, b) in Ruby.

Some of the things in here look REALLY UGLY and/or arbitrary. Our goal is to match how RPM compares versions, quirks and all.

I’ve kept a lot of C-like string processing in an effort to keep this as identical to RPM as possible.

returns 1 if str1 is newer than str2,

 0 if they are identical
-1 if str1 is older than str2
