I overlooked that bit; “cj3” doesn’t look like a version number, indeed.

There’s no policy regarding semver & co: packages can do what they want.

However, the Guix CLI assumes “normal” version numbers, meaning a string
that starts with dot-separated digits.  ‘guix upgrade’, for instance,
compares version strings to determine what’s being upgraded, so those
strings have to be “normal” version strings.

jgart, is “cj7” the version string upstream?  In that case, can we
change it to “7” or “7.cj” or something along these lines?

Ludo’.
