CMake package configuration version check is too strict

[Sergiu Deitsch]

While updating from argparse 3.0 to 3.1 I encountered the following problem:

CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:11 (find_package):
  Could not find a configuration file for package "argparse" that is
  compatible with requested version "3.0.0".

  The following configuration files were considered but not accepted:

    /usr/lib/cmake/argparse/argparseConfig.cmake, version: 3.1.0
    /lib/cmake/argparse/argparseConfig.cmake, version: 3.1.0

Is it intentional that minor versions are considered incompatible between each other? If not, this code

argparse/CMakeLists.txt

Lines 57 to 60 in 68fd027

 write_basic_package_version_file("${CMAKE_CONFIG_VERSION_FILE_NAME}" 
     COMPATIBILITY ExactVersion 
     ${OPTIONAL_ARCH_INDEPENDENT} 
 ) 

should be updated to use either AnyNewerVersion or SameMajorVersion instead of ExactVersion as the COMPATIBILITY argument.

No, this is not intentional. Agreed, should be fixed.
