in the packaging world, even snapshots are versioned sanely. this could be via
a datestamp like 2.2.0.201501, or by indicating that this is a pre-release snap
like 2.3.0_pre#. GNU toolchain projects use the snapshot method, while other
GNU projects use the 90/99 suffix like 2.2.90. i don't think using a dash is
all that common (ignoring distros themselves repacking things).
