About Epoch in RPM and DEB Package Versioning

In DEB Type, the epoch is included in the version.

pkg:deb/debian/attr@1:2.4.47-2%2Bb1?arch=amd64

But, RPM Type, the epoch is included in qualifiers.

pkg:rpm/[email protected]?arch=i686&epoch=1&distro=fedora-25

In my opinion, it is preferable to include epoch in the version as in RPM.

@masahiro331 -SAN! Good catch. That's a bug to fix: epoch should always be in the version alright! Would you be willing to propose a patch? 👼 😇 ? That's a good clarification of the spec.
