I'm packaging up Gnome, but upset chokes on finding the version of gtk+.  It
takes this setup.hint:

sdesc: "gtk+"
category: XFree86
requires: XFree86-base glib
ldesc: "GTK+ is a multi-platform toolkit for creating graphical user
interfaces. Offering a complete set of widgets, GTK+ is suitable for
projects ranging from small one-off projects to complete application
suites.

GTK+ is free software and part of the GNU Project. However, the
licensing terms for GTK+, the GNU LGPL, allow it to be used by all
developers, including those developing proprietary software, without
any license fees or royalties."


And turns it into this setup.ini entry:

@ gtk+
sdesc: "Gtk+"
ldesc: "GTK+ is a multi-platform toolkit for creating graphical user
interfaces. Offering a complete set of widgets, GTK+ is suitable for
projects ranging from small one-off projects to complete application
suites.

licensing terms for GTK+, the GNU LGPL, allow it to be used by all
developers, including those developing proprietary software, without
any license fees or royalties."
category: XFree86
requires: XFree86-base glib
version: -1.2.10-1
install: release/XFree86/gtk+/gtk+-1.2.10-1.tar.bz2 2566794
source: release/XFree86/gtk+/gtk+-1.2.10-1-src.tar.bz2 2884874


Notice that the version is thought to be "-1.2.10-1", rather than
"1.2.10-1".

Robert, can setup.exe handle a '+' in the package name?
