Hi,some gnulib modules (e.g., gnulib/m4/libunistring-base.m4) have facilities for comparing version numbers, e.g., 1.5.22 with 2.2.8. it would be nice if there were a module (say, version-compare) which would export such a facility.
e.g., @VERSION_COMPARE@ would expand to version_compare() { ... } which would return 0 or 1 depending on whether $1 is smaller than $2. Thanks. Sam.
