upgraded (and dependencies changed from == to >=), but we don't yet do
it officially, as we need to be sure nothing breaks for our users.
Once we're able to determine the versions safe to use, and
automatically test that, we'll make the dependencies less strict.
Jelmer Vernooij is already working on that.
