The `epoch` could easily be incremented when the suffix is removed. The focus should be on making it clear which version of the software we are providing; if “0.1a10” is the upstream version number, then that’s the number we should use.
Yep, I just try to avoid bumping epoch whenever possible. I guess the real problem here is that we don't have a way to specify that a version is a pre-release, essentially we need something like `~` in Debian: https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-controlfields.html#s-f-Version -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/44698#comment:8> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
