You're seeing a bug in Planet's version comparisons -- it doesn't know how to compare 5.x to 4.x, so planet packages that require some 4.x minimum version don't work in 5.x. As a result you'll (currently) only be able to get versions of a package that require 3xx or have no requirements at all. Robby and Eli are working on it; once they put in a fix, it should be smooth sailing.
