The problem with that information is that packages got removed from mentors.d.n if the exact version is uploaded to the official archive, but they do not get removed if an higher version superseding that on version is uploaded. See [1]. I've been told that mentors.d.n code is in flux and that that bug will be fixed soon. That's one of the reason why I did not implement the "higher than" check in the PTS to avoid showing the warning. The other reason is that currently the place where this feature is implemented is the right one, but it is not easy to perform version comparisons there (XSLT stylesheets ...). Before implementing full-fledged version comparison in XSLT, I was hoping the problem gets fixed mentors.d.n side. Cheers.
