Next time, maybe waiting for the beta would be better, cauldron is not
mean to be a playground for testing upstream softwares when we do not
have a strong assurance that the stable will end i the stable release.

If everybody start to do that, we spend more time on upgrading to
version that should have been stable than fixing others bugs.

And if upstream could also try to be a little bit less original and
follow some easy to grasp convetion about version number.
