I disagree. This package has been in Fedora with Epoch 5, so it should never
be reintroduced with a lower (or no) Epoch. People do skip releases when
upgrading, or even keep the package from the EOL release if the newer
release no longer provides it but does not force its removal (either
deliberately because they still need the package, or accidentally because
they just forgot about it – and for the record, I am absolutely against
forced obsoletion of retired packages as long as they still work because
people may want to keep them deliberately). By dropping the Epoch, you break
the upgrade path for the people who still have the F23 or pre-F24-Rawhide
package installed for whatever reason, so they may end up still sticking
with the obsolete package.
That literally does not matter since system upgrades happen with distro-sync,
which ignores Epochs. But it's too late now. :(
