Thanks, editing the version file works great for now.

The upstream flightgear-data 2016.4.1, 2, 3 and 4 are completely
identical except the version number - only flightgear and simgear were
actually being changed, but this check required all of them to be
re-released.
Upstream have just relaxed this requirement (in current development
only; would probably work in 2016.4, but not tested):
https://sourceforge.net/p/flightgear/simgear/ci/fd34cc30b8ef0d61d0763cf44eec534dfa02686e/
https://sourceforge.net/p/flightgear/flightgear/ci/4a3ee6a74a1416451cfc94be9be788b39e2f97ec/
Alternatively, we could edit the 'version' files (in the source root of
each) to make them think they're all the same version.
(If you want it to work now, rather than after the 10-day
unstable-to-testing wait, the latter also works on the installed
/usr/share/games/flightgear/version)
