I'm not quite sure I understand this. Are you saying that the dependency is on a specific version, not *at least* a specific version because the developer doesn't want to take the chance that some needed feature isn't backward compatible? If not, why be so fussy? (Please note that this isn't meant as a challenge; I'm sure there's a good reason that I'm not aware of.) -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
