- patch perl-URPM so that foobar-X-Ymga is always newer than
foobar-Z-Wmdv
I'm sorry, but I don't understand what problems this third option would
solve. Can you explain to me (and maybe I'm not alone) ?
It looks like my question has been forgotten among the daily flow of messages,
but I'm still interested by the answer.

I've wondered about this a fair bit myself.
I think the thought was that if everything from mdv2010.1/2 was replaced by packages from mga1, then everything should work. However, a lot of packages from mdv2010.1 didn't make it to mga1, so on reflection, I would say that this option could well increase the likelihood of problems. Particularly things like missing/ differently configured drivers, packages that depend on particular versions of other packages, etc.

Of course, I'm only speculating ... :)

Best regards
