Hi,

this not really a bug, but we should possible print a more understable
error message: Basically this says that the version of pakfire does not
support the latest package format.

Could you please provide me the version of pakfire you have currently
installed on your system? I will push an older version so you can update
to that first and then move to the latest one.

@Stevee: We should update the image, because I do not want to have such
old versions of some packages lying around in the stable repositories!

Michael
