guess where this "hacking" reminds me of..
the hacking i need to do with css stylesheets to make them Internet Explorer compatible!
and now this needs to be done in linux aswell.. even for one of it`s core components.
o well.. i`m gonna browse through that source as soon as i get home.

Someone already answered that one, I'm afraid : The rpm source code.
You can speculate all you want on "replacement" methods to compare
versions, but chances you'll get it right are near zero... unless you
use the exact same algorithm (and trick and hacks?) than rpm itself.
