  ## We are limiting ourselves to this set of characters because the

  ## is [A-Za-z0-9\.\_\-].  However, this is very limited.  We specially
  ## want to support a "+" so we can support "pkgname-2.1.0+" during
  ## development.  So we use Debian's character set for version strings
  ## https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-controlfields.html#s-f-Version
  ## with the exception of ":" (colon) because that's the PATH separator.
  ##
  ## Debian does not include "_" because it is used to separate the name,
  ## version, and arch in their deb files.  While the actual filenames are
  ## never parsed to get that information, it is important to have a unique
  ## separator character to prevent filename clashes.  For example, if we
  ## used hyhen as separator, "signal-2-1-rc1" could be "signal-2" version
  ## "1-rc1" or "signal" version "2-1-rc1".  A package file for both must be
  ## able to co-exist in the same directory, e.g., during package install or
  ## in a flat level package repository.
