我不喜欢这些解决方案，因为它们漏洞百出、不可移植等等。

我(目前)努力提出一个更好的解决方案……src: version_compare(),测试

# Compare two versions.
#
# **Usage:** version_compare version1 operator version2
#
# - operator:
#
#   + ``lesser_than``, ``-lt``, ``<``
#   + ``lesser_than_or_equal``, ``-le``, ``<=``
#   + ``greater_than``, ``-gt``, ``>``
#   + ``greater_than_or_equal``, ``-ge``, ``>=``
#   + ``equal``, ``-eq``, ``==``
#   + ``not_equal``, ``-ne``, ``!=``
#
# - version{1,2}: arbitrary version strings to compare
#
# **Version Format:** ``[0-9]+($VERSION_SEPARATOR[0-9]+)*`` (i.e. 1, 1.0, 90, 1.2.3.4)
#
# **Returns:** true if comparison statement is correct

如果它只是想知道一个版本是否比另一个版本低，我会检查sort——version-sort是否会改变我的版本字符串的顺序:

    string="$1
$2"
    [ "$string" == "$(sort --version-sort <<< "$string")" ]

函数V -纯bash解决方案，不需要外部实用程序。 支持== = != < <= >和>=(字典)。 可选尾字母比较:1.5a < 1.5b 长度不等比较:1.6 > 1.5b 从左到右读取:如果V 1.5 '<' 1.6;然后……

代码解释

第1行:定义局部变量:

A, op, b -比较操作数和操作符，即"3.6" > "3.5a"。 Al, a和b的bl尾字母，初始化为尾项，即“6”和“5a”。

第2行和第3行:从尾部项目中向左修剪数字，因此如果有字母，则只剩下“”和“a”。

第4行:右修剪a和b中的字母，只保留数字项的序列作为局部变量ai和bi，即“3.6”和“3.5”。 值得注意的例子:"4.01-RC2" > "4.01-RC1"得到ai="4.01" al="-RC2"和bi="4.01" bl="-RC1"。

第6行:定义局部变量:

Ap, bp - 0 ai和bi的右填充。首先只保留项间点，其中点的数量分别等于a和b的元素的数量。

第7行:然后在每个点后面添加“0”来制作填充蒙版。

第9行:局部变量:

W -项目宽度 FMT - printf格式字符串，待计算 X -暂时 IFS =。Bash以“。”分隔变量值。

第10行:计算w，最大条目宽度，它将用于对齐条目进行字典比较。在我们的例子中w=2。

第11行:通过替换$a中的每个字符创建printf对齐格式。w b美元% ${},即,“3.6”>“3.5”收益率“% 2 s % 2 s % 2 s % 2 s”。

第12行:"printf -v a"设置变量a的值。这相当于许多编程语言中的a=sprintf(…)。注意这里，通过IFS=的影响。printf的参数拆分为单独的项。

在第一个printf中，a中的项用空格左填充，同时从bp中追加足够多的“0”项，以确保结果字符串a可以与类似格式的b进行有意义的比较。

请注意，我们将bp -而不是ap附加到ai，因为ap和bp可能有不同的长度，所以这导致a和b具有相同的长度。

对于第二个printf，我们将字母部分al附加到a，并使用足够的填充来进行有意义的比较。现在a可以和b比较了。

第13行:与第12行相同，但b。

第15行:在非内置(<=和>=)操作符和内置操作符之间分割比较情况。

第16行:如果比较操作符<=，则分别测试a<b或a=b - >= a<b或a=b

第17行:测试内置比较操作符。
