Description
Hi all, some fellow developers and me worked for some time now on making APK the new package manager for OpenWrt, replacing the unmaintained OPKG fork we've been using for the longest time.
APK is actively developed and used in multiple other distributions, e.g. Alpine Linux 🎉
While there is till some work ahead, I'd like to prepare everyone who maintains a package to verify that the PKG_VERSION follows Semantic Versioning <major>.<minor>.<fixup>[.<sub1>...]. APK uses a deterministic algorithm to compare versions and does not like random strings, except a valid hash prefixed with a ~.
If in doubt, please use the Docker container below to verify the used version is valid:
docker run --rm -it ghcr.io/aparcar/apk-valid-version <VERSION> [<VERSION> ...]
It will print whatever version is not valid, if you get a zero exit code, you're fine.
Please feel free to reach out for assistance and have a look at the core migration of versions.
