As you figured out, it is possible.  But I would argue that it is not
an ideal thing to do.  I think we can get away with it for now since
different releases of the IT OS are best kept completely separate
anyway.

My hope for the future is, however, that we get a single "maemo" or
even "IT OS" package name space where there is only one package with a
given name, version and architecture.  That should remove one big
source of confusion and we could get a much better chance of managing
transitions between IT OS releases and back porting and all the
essential things about operating system releases that we are missing.
