If you want to fix an existing older version (= backporting), you
would usually do a new bugfix release for that version. For
example, to fix 0.4.10, you would make a bugfix 0.4.11.</p>
<p>That being said, often it's sufficient to just fix the latest
version and ask people to upgrade. Backporting only makes sense if
you need/want to support existing, possibly incompatible versions
of programs/libraries, where upgrades are non-trivial. A good
example are operating systems.<br>

<div> I get it. Well, I'm talking about cyclone, which I made
a release on the 17th and on the 19th I had the other
binary... that's too soon and too little for a new release.
And yeah, I do think it's an unnecessary confusion/stress,
not everyone knows the difference and might not know what to
pick.</div>

<div>Still about cyclone, I just released 0.5-4! Ideally, I'd
also have to repack and reupload earlier 0.5-x versions, as
I did it wrong and didn't upload the linux capital letter
aliases... how would that go if it's immutable? Seems too
extreme for me and there could be good reasons to reupload a
package at least when they screw up. And what if you have a

<div>Anyway, I'm too busy and lazy to repack and reupload
cyclone anyway.</div>
