OK, I'll keep it in mind. I thought the change was harmless because it didn't
bump the library's libmajor, but apparently the KDE packages require an exact
version 0.3 of attica's libraries which seems broken to me. In any case, I'll
check for package maintainership later on and also will always try to install
the packages first to see if they break anything.

Thanks for the heads' up.

BTW, you should not call me "Rindolf" outside IRC. My name is Shlomi.
