That is impossible because the version changed.
In the tool I’m using, I have a hard version requirement on
rng-tools (<< 3) | rng-tools-debian (<< 3).
Sounds like a self-imposed problem.
At best we could do with an epoch, but these are nowadays
frowned upon. For two softwares as distinct as these rng-tools
implementations, the +really dance is more than just questionable
instead.
So use the epoch. They're invented for fixing collosal errors like this.
Except this time, have the appropriate discussion on -devel instead of
just uploading something without coordination.
