The version number with -rc should be considered older than the final
release.
For example, 6.14-rc1 should be older than 6.14, but to handle this
correctly (just like Debian kernel), "-rc" must be replace with "~rc".
$ dpkg --compare-versions 6.14-rc1 lt 6.14
$ echo $?
1
$ dpkg --compare-versions 6.14~rc1 lt 6.14
$ echo $?
0
