Half an hour after I've written this, I've run into this type of problem, 
again, while trying to talk a co-developer into getting RKWard to build on 
Windows: Package "automoc" is not in available in 4.4.4, but the latest 
available version of the package (4.3.2) works just fine (for me).

I suppose this can be fixed manually by whoever has the means to (please do!), 
but wouldn't it be possible to avoid this type of problem most of the time, 
simply by _not_ splitting up by release, by default?

Thomas
