 Right. wesnoth-1.8 now comes with an unversioned package that will
always pull in the latest stable release. Unfortunately this removes
wesnoth version 1.6 because that one didn't had the versioned packages,
so if one wants to keep both wesnoth versions around, the wesnoth
package itself needs to stick at 1.6 and wesnoth-1.8 has to get pulled
in explicitly through the wesnoth-1.8 package.

 Unfortunately there isn't a more helpful approach to the switch. At
least now it's possible to install them side-by-side, which wasn't
possible from 1.4 to 1.6 :)

 Enjoy!
