Subject: latest version not available in by-module directory on CPAN servers
Hi, today (2007-10-08) I checked ftp://cpan.pair.com/modules/by-module/Parse/ ftp://ftp.funet.fi/pub/languages/perl/CPAN/modules/by-module/Parse/ ftp://ftp.gmd.de/mirrors/CPAN/modules/by-module/Parse/ ftp://ftp.tuwien.ac.at/pub/CPAN/modules/by-module/Parse/ http://cpan.perl.org/CPAN/modules/by-module/Parse/ ftp://ftp.fi.muni.cz/pub/CPAN/modules/by-module/Parse/ All those directories contain the archive for version 1.94 but none of them contains the latest version v1.95.1. ciao Klaus

I suspect that this is a bug in the CPAN indexer more than P::RD. Switching from 2-number version to 3-number ones gave me problems in the past, like 1.94 being considered 1_940_000 and 1.95.1 being considered 1_095_001 - which is inferior and thus not indexed.
I believe that Parse::RecDescent's switch to version numbers like 1.9660001 (six trailing decimals always) has addressed this issue, and will do so for future versions of the module. Thank you for the bug report!
