Challenge to change file names

Hi,

How can I change following file name in a bash script?

From file names:
Code:
myfile-module-1.0-3.0.el6.x86_64.package

To file names:
Code:
myfile-module1_0-1.0-3.0.el6.x86_64.package

^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^

Basically, the digit 1.0 is a version number, the digit 3.0 is a release number, I need to add the version number to module name and change the version number "." to "_". So the module name "module" becomes "module1_0", the rest are identical.

Thank you.

Kind regards.
