I hadn't noticed this was introduced here, but what a poor decision to
bump the version to 4.6.1a. This has caused Fedora now to be using a
4.6.1a-x.y version number even before 4.6.1 has been introduced.

Since 4.6.1a > 4.6.1 this will cause some rather nasty versioning issues
once 4.6.1 gets released. Next time please consider your versioning more
carefully, or even better, discuss before acting.

Leonard.
