Instead, it allows any upgrades with the same release. (As if a < b was true for all a, b.) I have put tests that demonstrate this in rpminstall-tests-1.1-alt1: $ /usr/share/rpminstall-tests/makeme.sh TESTS="$(echo {upgradable_dummyFresh{Release,Buildtime}_after_dummy,nonupgradable_dummy_after_dummyFresh{Release,Buildtime}})" ...
