Excellent idea! The rawhide rpm has been updated.

Again... sorry for the pain.

Specifying major version numbers in the library files (extract below)
will ensure a build failure when the soname bumps to ensure this
doesn't happen and that you're aware of it can do do appropriate
communication/side tag builds/etc so it doesn't break rawhide for
everyone else that's trying to get things done in the future.

libevent-2.1.8 SONAME change.

[Steve Dickson]

Hello,

Yesterday I updated libevent to the latest upstream release.

I mistakenly did not realized there was a SONAME change
in this update. So if your package is dependent on 
libevent, you are going to have to rebuild. 

My apologies for this oversight...
