Completely. People should be aware (ok, we never told you but...)
the -3mdk in 7.1 updates, the -2mdk in 7.0/6.x updates, and the -1mdk
in cooker are all built differently. I can't make -1mdk for
everything because the specs are all different.
The -#mdk is just a patch-level anyways... They are all 0.91 so the
version is the same, just the patch-level differs, and this is, as
Geoffrey said, due to macros in specfiles, etc. Backporting is *so*
much fun... =)
