Does the perl-Business-ISBN-Data package need updating as well?
When I saw the diff between my package and what dar-perl.py proposed go
from 1.17 to 20081020 it raised some red flags (timestamps in versions are
irreversible acts I prefer not to perform).
However now that I know some of the packages are hardcoded with the same
senseless versions I think I will have to comply (or patch).
The shit hits the fan when the author decides to revert to his earlier
scheme though. Really shameful things we packagers have to put up with :)
So I will comply against my preference !
