And it is astonishing, that such a change is made after 3 betas. I would expect such a change in beta1 or in the alpha releases. It is always said, that a version update of this and that program can't be done, because it _could_ break other things. On the other side the package manager is changed at that late stage and it is known, that it _will_ break things.
