Well, after writing that, and then re-reading it, I do want to say that I
understand that this is different from the 6.4.1 mispackage -- as it was a
package of the then CURRENT branch versus the stable branch, and was thus a
more serious problem than the present one. I was not intending to make this
one to be bigger than it is -- it is indeed a minor packaging error, not of the
magnitude of 6.4.1. HOWEVER, the spirit of 6.4.1-6.4.2 is to at least make a
brief note available. And I'm glad the 6.4.1 problem has not been repeated.

My apologies.

As an RPM packager, I have it a little easier than you do, Marc -- I can just
release a minor update to the same version. Problems with 7.0-1? No problem --
here's 7.0-2. Save version of the program -- different release of the package.
