Your situation was different, you bumped the version but skipped few
minor versions.  That makes no difference apart from the cosmetic issue
that a few minor versions never existed.

Bumping the major versions changes the API, it even made FFmpeg fail to
compile.  Of course this should be reverted when it's not done on
purpose as it will have very noticeable effects on users of FFmpeg.
