Well, no. There really isn't any bug here. The current F25 package is
older than the current F24 package, so if you upgrade from F24 to F25,
the package will indeed be downgraded. This is all basically as it
should be, nothing is wrong, and if you went ahead with the upgrade, it
ought to work correctly.

This is not uncommon around this point in the cycle, because updates
can be pushed stable for 23 and 24 while 25 is in its Final freeze and
only blocker / FE fixes can be pushed stable. So it does happen that 25
'stable' gets behind 23/24 'stable' for some packages. This usually
gets sorted out when we start doing the post-freeze stable pushes, but
it's usually not actually a *problem* anyway.
