That just does not make sense: We enforce upgrade paths from Rawhide to 
Rawhide (!) requiring lots of unnecessary Epoch bumps when things need to be 
reverted (which is normal for a development running release), but we happily 
allow the ones that actually matter to end users to break?

All this just so that lazy packagers do not have to increment a number (in 
most cases a single-character change, in some cases (such as a minor bump or 
every 10 major bumps) a two-character change, rarely more) when doing a new 
build.
