Yes , like I already wrote in fedoras list, versioning on packages
which doesn't have version should have 2 counters, but you win, by I'm
not following the guideline, IMHO I'm improving it, but I'm not going
discus this, because I can't win.
I'd like point out 2 things, 1 - IMHO Package guidelines, is what it
says, one guide and is *not* the supreme truth, that I have to follow
strictly, 2 - I'm one of the official package maintainer of x264 [1] so
I felt that I have more property / authorization .
So no problem nor a big deal, we already rollback the versioning, sorry
if I brought you trouble or bother anyone, it wasn't my intention and
it was just a small detail, I think.

Let me see, I can fit in what I want, in resume, my case, is about
packages without version or is a version that stalled and the package
is just maintained over the time ...
