Nope, I'm after having multiple versions in the same suite. I only really need, say, at most six versions, so I could create multiple repositories and then set something up so that when a file is replaced, it shuffles the to-be-deleted package over to the next repository in the chain, who will do the same..

in rpm/yum systems there have been some packages where the version no. is rolled into the package name giving "package-1.2" as the package and then attaching a version numbered onto it. VirtualBox-4.1-4.1.16_78094_rhel6-1.x86_64.rpm being the prime example of this. Steve
