Because the ftpmasters did not suggest this when they requested to drop the version number from the -dev package name, and I did not come up with that idea myself :) More seriously, it's probably still possible to implement this solution if you think it's worth it. The benefits are nevertheless limited, given the small size of the transition and the work already done. Essentially, this will save a sourceful upload of k3d and getfem++. -- .''`.
