Hello!
I have the following problem: A package which has been versioned without number but with a date as version number ( mediawiki-math- 1401961173 ) starting some month ago, the package has now a "real" version number (1.26). I'd like to use the new number, but I do not see how I could force a update then...
There is only one method, which we do not employ in openSUSE: rpm epoch. As our policy is to use 'zypper dup' between releases and openSUSE Tumbleweed snapshots, you don't even have to care that much: zypper will perform an auto-downgrade to the 'real' version once the dated ones are no longer in the configured repositories.
