Summary of differences from pkg_resources.parse_version
=======================================================

* Note: this comparison is to ``pkg_resourses.parse_version`` as it existed at
the time the PEP was written. After the PEP was accepted, setuptools 6.0 and
later versions adopted the behaviour described in this PEP.

* Local versions sort differently, this PEP requires that they sort as greater
than the same version without a local version, whereas
``pkg_resources.parse_version`` considers it a pre-release marker.
