Ahh yes, right you are. I totally misunderstood the question.

Martin (added you back to CC as you don't seem to be subscribed to the
devel list) -- if you want to avoid retiring vdr-live, epoch bumping
tntnet and cxxtools back to 2.2 sounds about right to me too, especially
given that they only appear to be used by vdr-live.

Bumping the Epoch tag to 1 in a spec file would make rpm consider 2.2
newer than 2.3rc1, so that you can submit the "newer" 1:2.2 as a F23
update that correctly replaces the "older" 0:2.3rc1 build.
