    initial v1  
    1 Third party apps are not considered.  There shouldn't be any packages in OSGeo4W anymore that depend on gdal307-runtime, so gdal307-runtime should be unused as far as packages are concerned an can therefore be safely removed.

    3 Dependencies in OSGeo4W are generally unversioned, so doing partial updates has the potential risk of producing broken installations.  Updating everything should always be safe.  Downgrading part might work, but might also break.

    55As a starting point to cure this, GDAL and PROJ deviate from that rule and have the (abi) version name in the name of the runtime package.  So packages built against GDAL and PROJ should depend on the actual package version.  But that was never extended to all packages.  So currently having versions for GDAL and PROJ eases some transitions, but doesn't help if their dependencies change (like openssl and webp in this case).
