greater than `1:3.6-1`.
Keep in mind that the 'pkgrel' is only compared if it is available on both
versions given to this tool. For example, comparing `1.5-1` and `1.5` will
yield 0; comparing `1.5-1` and `1.5-2` will yield < 0 as expected. This is
mainly for supporting versioned dependencies that do not include the 'pkgrel'.
