#1134 Hub policy match on version and release
Closed: Fixed by mikem. Opened by tibbs.

Closed: Fixed
Reopen Issue

Currently a hub policy can match on the package name, but cannot check for the package version or release. (Or epoch, I guess.) It would be nice if it were possible to apply matches to those.

The current use case in Fedora is preventing packages from using versions containing a tilde while those are forbidden by packaging policy.

The data available to a policy varies. Which policy/policies are you thinking of for this request?

The intention is to use this match in "tag" policy.

Asked on PR #1135, but also asking here:

Is glob matching sufficient here? Will folks need a version compare? (e.g. greater than, less than)

When I started to think about possible real world policies, my mind immediately jumped to version comparisons. Seems like it could be the most likely case.

Or is there any other sort of version/release test I'm not thinking of?

Metadata Update from @mikem:
- Custom field Size adjusted to None

To be fair, the reason which prompted me to file this originally has been made moot over the intervening months. It's possible that a similar situation could soon arise, and for that I guess a glob would work. But note that what we wanted to match against (and I guess might want to match against in future) are special characters like ~ or ^.
