>                 Key: MRESOLVER-336
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MRESOLVER-336
>             Project: Maven Resolver
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Resolver
>    Affects Versions: 1.9.5
>            Reporter: David M. Lloyd
>            Assignee: Tamas Cservenak
>            Priority: Major

> Given the following:
> {code}
> $ jbang --main=org.eclipse.aether.util.version.GenericVersionScheme org.apache.maven.resolver:maven-resolver-util:1.9.5 0.0.0.ga.ga.foo foo
> Display parameters as parsed by Maven Resolver (in canonical form and as a list of tokens) and comparison result:
> 1. 0.0.0.ga.ga.foo -> 0.0.0.ga.ga.foo; tokens: [0, 0, 0, foo]
>    0.0.0.ga.ga.foo == foo
> 2. foo -> foo; tokens: [foo]
> {code}
> This is expected iff zero-prefixed qualifiers are considered equal to the bare qualifier, which does seem to be the case *mostly*. However, we also have this:
> {code}
> $ jbang --main=org.eclipse.aether.util.version.GenericVersionScheme org.apache.maven.resolver:maven-resolver-util:1.9.5 ga.ga.foo foo
> Display parameters as parsed by Maven Resolver (in canonical form and as a list of tokens) and comparison result:
> 1. ga.ga.foo -> ga.ga.foo; tokens: [0, 0, foo]
>    ga.ga.foo < foo
> 2. foo -> foo; tokens: [foo]
> {code}
> In this case we have "zero"-valued qualifiers but no leading numerical segment, which unexpectedly changes the parsing rules. I would expect {{ga.ga.foo == foo}} as above. Is this a bug? Is there an explanation for this behavior? The spec doesn't seem to directly address this.
