Not everything can be supported in both releases, e.g. when KDE 4 was
released, the older Fedora release with KDE 3 did not update to KDE 4.
Also e.g. when pam_mount (a package I maintain) was partly rewritten and
changed the config file from custom to XML, this disqualified this
update to happen in a released version of Fedora.
