No problems here (Mdk 9.1 Cooker):

$ rpm -q pango
pango-1.1.5-1mdk

$ urpmq -r pango
pango-1.1.5-1mdk|pango-1.0.4-1mdk|pango-1.0.4-1mdk|pango-1.1.5-1mdk

I have my urpmi pointers set to various stable and cooker mirrors, so it seems 
current stable is 1.0.4-1 while cooker is 1.1.5-1.  Since I have the pointers 
set to the symlinks that remain constant, I'm not even sure what "current 
stable" is, whether they've upgraded it to 9.0 yet or whether it is still 
8.2, but I'd guess 9.0.

.. I'm glad they FINALLY updated gtkspell so I could get spelling again in 
PAN.  I wonder why it took them so long as compared to some other stuff?
They skipped an entire minor point release, going from 2.0.0 to 2.0.2, which 
isn't like them in Cooker, which usually tracks current pretty well.

.. One of these days I'll get more involved with their betas as well, since 
I'm running cooker anyway, and likely know these things...
