I assume the new semver parser doesn't flag as prerelease. The old one had
probably ignored the double dash versions

[mexx]

Yes, it's the problem with numbers before dash.

Do you know how to fix it?

I'm looking currently into it.

I have trouble with the number detection, which is used to correct the sorting of versions.
When we implement SemVer v2 this extra handling would not work anymore, as pre-release parts are separated with dots, not by dashes and parts should only be sorted numeric when they consist solely of numbers.
Current handling tries to separate a part into a name and a number, how should we proceed with this behavior?

I currently would suggest to revert #288, as it's introduced the bigger problem as it supposed to solve, and address all the things with #289.

[forki]

Ok good idea.

done

Btw: big respect for such a suggestion. That's never easy.

Bug in resolution of pre-release versions is less important as a bug in resolution of normal version, so it was easy to decide. But thanks for kudos, I'm trying my best ;)
