That doesn't preclude following the above guideline (next time), just add .1
to Release even in master. If you aren't building in master, it doesn't
matter that the Release there does not follow the usual Rawhide numbering.
For this time, please just build the master branch of the affected packages,
a gratuitous rebuild in Rawhide isn't going to kill anybody, whereas upgrade
path issues are bugs that must be fixed ASAP.
