Good point, but I figured we could add the suffix .1 or something if we could 
not get a change merged upstream: the snapshots are weekly or better in ncurses, 
although others not so often, and I have no idea how they decide when to release 
a new GNU version 6.5?

What happens if we change versioning from 6.4-yyyymmdd to 6.4+yyyymmdd-1?

My rpm-ver.bash shell script says okay, but rpmdev-vercmp (from rpmdevtools 9.6) 
now complains, rpm{,-build,-devel}, python3{,9}-rpm are installed and OK, any idea?

/usr/local/lib/python3.9/site-packages/rpm.py:15: UserWarning: The RPM Python 
bindings are not currently available via PyPI.

Please install them with your distro package manager (typically called
'python2-rpm' or 'python3-rpm'), and ensure that any virtual environments
needing the API are configured to be able to see the system site packages
directory.
