Okay, from now on I'll make sure the version numbers are bumped each
and every time.
I was just trying to avoid the situation where a user checks
package-xyz is at version 1.01, checks a week or so later and sees
that package-xvz is at 1.05. He thinks, "hey, what'd I miss?".
That's probably a very small price to pay and not worth worrying
about.
