This is already pushed with the errors, but it is removed by:

Yes >> is the right way, but this cannot work in build time. If must

In general old versions should never be deleted from the server, in

Looking in https://download.libguestfs.org/libnbd/, I don't think we
have any issue with keeping all published versions.
