+* Modules :module:`CPackRPM` and :module:`CPackDeb` learned to set package epoch
+  version.
+  See :variable:`CPACK_RPM_PACKAGE_EPOCH` and
+  :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_EPOCH` variables.
+
+* The :module:`CPackDeb` module learned to set package release version in
+  `Version` info property.
+  See :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_RELEASE` variable.
+
+* The :module:`CPackDeb` module learned more strict package version checking
+  that complies with Debian rules.
