+
+&gt;<i> &gt; Most of the time it's just for avoiding an incompatibility which will
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; force the distribution to keep it for the rest of its life. So adopting
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Thats the price you have to pay when you want to alter versioning
+</I>&gt;<i> downwards or otherwise fix it...
+</I>
+Isn't that too high for a new distribution ?
+
+In that case, the move was done upstream as well, as it wsa wrongly
+named first.
+But that has been done back in &quot;2006-03-20 Mondo 2.0.7 / Mindi 1.0.7 are
+out&quot;.
+
+Isn't is possible to find another way to cure an old mistake ?
+
+Could we not deliever mondo e.g. in the first version of mageia, and
+start with the second one ?
+
+&gt;<i> rpm/urpmi does not read release notes, errata or other documentation
+</I>&gt;<i> (and neither does most endusers)
+</I>
+THey're wrong, you learn a lot in them ;-)
+
+&gt;<i> And we stated from the beginning of Mageia that we will support upgrade
+</I>&gt;<i> from 2010.1/2
+</I>
+Well I can understand that for core packages, but for contrib, that's a
+unique opportunity to fix what was wrong.
+
+&gt;<i> So, either you or someone else will have to add the epoch to satisfy
+</I>&gt;<i> rpm/urpmi upgrade path, and it needs to be done quickly as we are soon
+</I>&gt;<i> to enter release freeze and release RC.
+</I>
+iCould I do something on the mandriva side (as I'm also packager there)
+to fix it ? Like breaking compatibility there instead of here ;-)
+
+Bruno.
