POE 1.020 includes retrograde versions of all its sub-modules. As a result, the PAUSE indexer has rejected them:
module: POE::Component
version: 1.020
in file: lib/POE/Component.pm
status: Not indexed because lib/POE/Component.pm in
R/RC/RCAPUTO/POE-1.007.tar.gz has a higher version number
(1.2447)
... and everything else but POE itself. This may also cause problems
for people who rely on specific sub-module versions. I think it may
also affect package managers outside CPAN.
It's an unfortunate side effect of the ongoing migration from Subversion to Git. I had to remove reliance on Subversion's $Revision $ tags, so now all the sub-modules track POE's version.
A POE 1.260 release should resolve the issue. POE and all its modules will have versions numerically greater than their highest released versions. Indexers will be happy again.
