Well, for me this is the worst solution. I found quite stupid to put
into name of rpm version if it is not shared library. It makes sense
for big project like KDE, but we do not want to support old ycp code
together with ruby code. On other hand you still can use old ycp code
together with ruby code.
I like to mention that this will probably lead also to change all paths
like /var/log/YaST2,/var/lib/YaST2 or /usr/lib/Yast2 .

So from my POV I prefer option 1 as it is the least work and problems
and if we really want change number, then option three sounds more
reasonable for me.
