Bug Information
Severity: Critical
Broken in: 0.06.1
Fixed in: 0.062



Subject: decreasing versions
Versions with 2 dots are converted to real numbers. 0.1.1 means 0.001001. So 0.1 > 0.1.1. Versions with one dot are real numbers. So 0.9 > 0.10. Best is to delete distributions that have bigger versions that latest (that will help new installations). And upload new distribution with correct version (that will help users that have older version installed). In case of this distribution situation is worse because older (but with bigger version) distribution is still indexed because some module was removed in newer distribution. So fixing this problem is more important. -- Alexandr Ciornii, http://chorny.net
Thank you for your report, I really appreciate it ! I plan to switch to 0.062, 0.063, 0.064, etc, and remove distributions with real numbers. What do you think of these versions number ? Le Jeu 13 Fév 2014 06:17:20, CHORNY a écrit : Show quoted text
