AFAIU, the community best practice here is to issue a new release with a
bumped version number/pre/post/releasecode.

* https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0440/#version-scheme
  * https://github.com/peritus/bumpversion
  *
http://docs.openstack.org/developer/pbr/semver.html#changes-vs-semver-2-0

    MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH

The reasons for this are many:
* HTTP caches
* local pip/buildout pkg caches
* it is actually a different resource, with a different URI
(repo,pkg,version,[pkgtype,platform,buildtags]) because it contains
different files
