Yes, with the move to source policies and high level languages, the
concept of module versions was remove. High level languages may still
provide there own mechanism of module versioning if it makes sense (e.g.
pp modules still have versions in them), but libsemanage no longer uses
these for anything. This is also the reason for deprecating the semodule
--upgrade option.
