0.5.15lorg3.1 loses epochs on rh7.3/rh8.0/rh9 (promoteepoch?)

[Axel Thimm]

Hi,

ATrpms' buildsystem is based on the latest released rpm & apt
versions, e.g. rpm-4.4.2 (inside and outside the chroots) and now
apt-0.5.15lorg3.1.

For the chroot mentioned in the Summary the new apt miscalculates
epochs. For example:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  rpm-build.32bit: Depends: perl (>= 5.006001)

rpm-build requires 5.006001 and perl offers 1:5.6.1-36.1.73, so it
looks like the epoch was dropped.

I think this might be a promoteepoch handling bug. All these three
have promoteepoch turned on [and need it turned on :/].
