 7d7faa30b4443f0cc76474738a36fd3f45e875f4. Do we really think this were
 necessary if we would just avoid updating the update responses files in
 the first place and deliver the updated ones only when we want to allow
 updating with the built-in updater? There should be no issue with possible
 downgrades of 4.5 users to 4.0.8 in this case as the updater related code
 is comparing versions and does not install the update if the proposed
 update has a lower version number IIRC.

 I forgot to respond to this... yes, there should not be any downgrade
 issues.
