Description: Version numbering for anarchists and software realists
 A backwards/forwards-compatible fork of distutils.version.LooseVersion,
 for times when PEP-440 isn't what you need.
 .
 The goal of this package is to be a drop-in replacement for the original
 LooseVersion. It implements an identical interface and comparison logic
 to LooseVersion. The only major change is that a
 looseversion.LooseVersion is comparable to a
 distutils.version.LooseVersion, which means tools should not need to
 worry whether all dependencies that use LooseVersion have migrated.
 .
 If you are simply comparing versions of Python packages, consider moving
 to packaging.version.Version, which follows PEP-440. LooseVersion is
 better suited to interacting with heterogeneous version schemes that do
 not follow PEP-440.
