   > Then please generalize the issue summary as well as the description and add more tests which depict that is general and not specific. Let's make this complete for master first and then I consent, then you can back port and save time.

> The current version parser does not treat .RC and -RC correctly:

> expected : 1.0.0.RC1 < 1.0.0-RC2
> because RC1 < RC2
> how to fix : place a list item before qualifier
> the intention is to have this same result with all qualifier x:
> actual : 1.0.0.X1 > 1.0.0-X2
> actual : 1.0.X < 1.0.0.X
> expected : 1.0.0.X1 < 1.0.0-X2
