I'd say make the changes now, as people who have been keeping up to date fr=
om=20
kdesupport would presumably already have eigen installed.

People installing eigen for the first time should use the 2.0.3 release eve=
n=20
if it's not packaged by the distro yet, no?  It would be more convenient fo=
r=20
people using build scripts to convert 2.0.3 over but I think that's more wo=
rk=20
than necessary (and besides, just prolongs the inevitable at this point).

Of course others may have different thoughts. :)
