You should be able to use the same version again and again as long
as the autobuild does not let the package pass. Why increment the version
number
for building atempts nobody will ever see. The "check in" (to speak in
version
control speach) occures if the autobuilder let the package pass.

So I can upload badthing-0.1 as often as I like up to the point
autobuild builds, for my next update I must use a higher version number
(I cannot replace packages using the same version and smaller versioned
packages will enevr been seen by anybody).

This was the original question and AFAIK this is the way it is
and should be implemented.
