Generally that is used if you need to fix something in a lower branch that otherwise has the same version as a higher branch without bumping the higher branch(es). For example: foo-5-1.fc11 foo-5-1.fc10 And we need to fix something F-10 specific: foo-5-1.fc11 foo-5-1.fc10.1 still follows F-11 > F-10 (upgrade path). However, I'm not sure why this is being added to a rawhide (or F-11) package.
