Accepting request 446737 from home:psimons:branches:utilities

We cannot update from fdupes 1.51 to 1.6.1. That "downgrade"
works okay'ish for Tumbleweed because we can replace the old
package with the new one, but in SLE this is not possible. We
asked upstream to please release a "2.0" version to remedy these
issues (https://github.com/adrianlopezroche/fdupes/issues/74),
but he does not respond. Therefore, we'll call this version 1.61,
ignoring upstreams change in the versioning scheme.
