Python package version standard

According to PEP440, it seems the following format below is a valid version string:

X.Y.postN    # Post-release

But when I use something like: 1.0.post1, I get the following exception in pbr. (I'm using the pbr version 0.11.0)

ERROR:root:Error parsing
Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pbr/core.py", line 104, in pbr

ValueError: Unknown remainder ['post1'] in '1.0.post1'
error in setup command: Error parsing /home/admin/mypackage/setup.cfg:

ValueError: Unknown remainder ['post1'] in '1.0.post1'

Anybody knows why that format is not supported in PBR?

Ref the docs: http://docs.openstack.org/developer/pbr/#version

The versions should be compatible with "Linux Compatible Semantic Versioning 3.0.0": http://docs.openstack.org/developer/pbr/semver.html
