The ability to have multiple different builds of the same software which users can choose between, sounds alot like the use case for modularity. Abusing Epoch to try to address this kind of situation feels like a pretty undesirable approach, as this problem with suddenly clashing Epochs will illustrate. If ceph in Fedora were a module, is it possible for Ceph upstream to provide an alternate module stream of ceph too ? If so, then users could use the normal modules features in DNF for deciding which stream to have active on their systems.
