We can easily revert back to 4.0.5 and even release this fast for Core Update= 190 users. We simply would count up the release version as usual. That is the only thing= that Pakfire looks at, so there downgrade of the version number does not mat= ter. Are you sending a patch?

How = would that work with the cached versions of the addons in the install.
