That's because there were no updates in prior versions, but in this
version I updated to the most recent CellServDB from
grand.central.org.  Then again, it is marked as a config file in the
SPEC, so I don't know why it changed your version, unless of course
you made no local changes.  Check to see if there is a .rpmsave
version of the file?

This is intentional.  You should use 'afsmodname -x' to perform the
same function and 'makesymtable' used to do.  Unfortunately I
neglected to update the documentation to this affect.  I'll see if I
can update that soon, but I don't plan to make another release at the
moment.

My appologies.
