Initially found by automated repository health checks used by Termux in termux/termux-packages#27472 The root problem was 4.3.5a comparing less than 4.3.5-rc1-1 by aptly According to debian "4.3.5a" > "4.3.5-rc1-1" This is because dpkg splits hyphen for revision at the first hyphen, whereas aptly was splitting at the last hyphen which is different from dpkg's behaviour. dpkg behaviour: https://git.dpkg.org/cgit/dpkg/dpkg.git/tree/lib/dpkg/parsehelp.c#n242 Perhaps this wasn't detected as there was broken tests in the repository since the initial commit of aptly. This also fixes those tests
Cause I'm nice :)
