KMPLayer version issues

When trying to update KMPlayer, I get the following error/warning from pacman:

warning: kmplayer: local (0.11.2-1) is newer than extra (0.11.2a-1)

Seems that '-' is sorting later than 'a', when it should be separating parts of the version string and therefore not matter.

yes. even is more up to date, vercmp doesn't see it like this because it thinks that "a" is from alpha or smth like this. the maintainer should use force flag

Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.
