Pure Python implementation of rpmvercmp.

The RPM Package Manager (http://rpm.org) has a version comparision algorithm,
implemented in its C library, which performs the comparison in a certain way.

In certain circumstances, where the C library is not installable (for example,
on non-rpm based systems), or does not support the desired version of the
python interpreter, the pure-python implementation may be useful.

Source Code
===========

Installation
============
        $ pip install rpm_vercmp

Usage
=====

        import rpm_vercmp
        assert rpm_vercmp.vercmp("1.0", "1.0") == 0
        assert rpm_vercmp.vercmp("1.0", "1.1") == -1

Testing
=======
The testsuite uses rpm's test file in m4 format.
