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

[Axel Thimm]

Hi,

there is also some reporting from RH9 users:

http://bugzilla.atrpms.net/show_bug.cgi?id=831

Should I withdraw this version from the repo until there's a solution?
Or even revert back to the previous one and add an epoch (god forbid,
but currently I'm breaking RH7.3-RH9 users running apt)?
