It does matter very much. There are a number of OPAM packages with constraints
like:
available: [ ocaml-version < "4.04.0" ]
Two questions:
1. Does OPAM really implement the Debian spec for comparing version numbers ?
2. How do I specify "every version strictly below 4.04.0 and its dev/beta variants" ?
