Re: [arch-general] Why has the version numbering of gnome-desktop package changed?

"extra/gnome-desktop   3.2.1-1   -> 1:3.2.1-1"
It is just a typo or the change was on purpose.

the number before  : is epoch. Is used to force a downgrade. I had to
do this because accidentally I pushed into [extra] gnome-desktop
3.3.92 and noticed only after 40 minutes.

Is this epoch number going to be there forever?
