Must be greater than.
However, most packages use the dist tag so:
Version: 1.0
Release: 1%{?dist}
Creates different packages on FC5 and FC6:
foo-1.0-1.fc5
foo-1.0-1.fc6
The second package's EVR is greater than the first one.
If you did not use the %{?dist} tag, you'd have to manage these releases
manually to keep the FC5 release < FC6.
