Y'know, this one kinda made me scratch my head a little when I came
across it, because surely 'abi' is a more accurate term than 'release'
in the context of 'there are multiple different but compatible
interpretations of the same basic thing, and this is a virtual
dependency for packages which can happily use any of them'? I mean,
switching from the word 'abi' to the word 'release' because you now have
two things that provide the same...ABI...seems exactly bass-ackwards :)
but I may be missing something.
