That way version 0.7.1 would be allowed to update the 0.4.7 with Epoch 1. However, given that the problematic package only appeared in Fedora 10 and upgrade paths are guaranteed by Fedora policy only from F(N-1) to F(N), I'd say that there's probably no need to fix this any more, since any remaining installations haven't had updates for ages and upgrading to a current release cleanly would require a clean reinstall anyway. -- Jussi Lehtola Fedora Project Contributor jussilehtola@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
