This is expected. I forgot to explain more about version bumped from 2 to  
3 in my first email, but I was hope if my English is clear enough it (the  
part that you have stripped out). I said, "I only can found a RPM that has  
security patch include that is update to 2.2.4 and bumped the shared  
libraries version." The 'bumped the shared libraries version' is what I  
mean about change 2 to 3. I can't find another RPM that has security patch  
include without bump libraries version.

If you can save mupad port, then go ahead update/modify mupad port if it  
possible. Unless someone find another RPM with security fix included.
