I really apologize - reading my own post, I sounded like a jerk.
I stopped maintaining for Fedora Extras because I just no longer had the 
time, and I do understand the issue and am grateful that the packages 
exist so that I don't have to compile as many myself.

It is a little frustrating and annoying, but I do greatly appreciate the 
contributions of those who contribute even when a shared lib does version.
