This is partially my fault -- my network connection hasn't been good for the
last day so instead of clearing with you which Fedora releases had the new
package, I just looked quickly at bodhi and didn't see any obsoletes so I
requested it be pushed to stable.  I now remember that obsoletes had to be
disabled in bodhi due to other bugs :-( so that didn't clue me in.

Sorry, mea culpa. rel-eng can unpush packages -- but it might be better if
they could just push the new set with the fixed deltarpm instead.
