Just hit a snag with the new 1.5 upstream version, which I now realize Adam mentioned earlier.

It changed the ondisk format[1] and requires an external tool[2] to convert to the new format. This tool (pmdk-convert) is not packaged yet. If we upgrade to 1.5, we would leave 1.4 users with no way to convert to the 1.5 format.

That being said, I believe the version that should be evaluated for an MIR is at least 1.5, due to the changes it introduces.
