Thanks for thinking of this. Would it be simplier to remove .; append '00' and then take left 6?

"take left" as in left shift bitwise?

Would that work for 18.08.{1,2,3...}?

I was wondering if .remove(".").append("0").left(6) would be easier.

I see, (sorry I didn't make the connection earlier).

I tested that with a couple of cases, and it wouldn't work, for example:
18.08.1 -> 1808100 -> 180810
18.08.10 -> 18081000 -> 180810

18.08.2 -> 1808200 -> 180820
18.08.20 -> 18082000 -> 180820

and if KF5 ever breaks the double-number release versions, e.g. 100.08.2, :), then that bit of code would fail. I'd rather we make the code just work for all the cases we can think of now.

Ok sorry for the noise - I should have read this more closer

No problem. :)
