The problem there is Koji's broken idea of "newest". For Koji, the "newest" 
package is the latest one which was tagged, not the highest EVR. (In fact, 
Koji doesn't process Epoch at all, so it can't even compare EVRs.) 
Unfortunately, the Koji developers refuse to acknowledge that this is even a 
bug, and have no plans to fix it ever. Fixing it would mean 1. telling Koji 
about Epoch and 2. using EVR comparisons instead of tagging dates to decide 
on the latest version.

To fix this particular instance of the problem, rel-eng needs to untag the 
obsolete 3.1.9 build so the 3.1.10 one becomes the "newest" also for Koji.
