Hi Dmitrii, I’m one of the PAUSE admins.
I see that you’re having problems with getting recent uploads of App-SimpleBackuper indexed. This is because you switched the format of your version numbers, sadly. You previously released 0.1 and most recently released 0.2.3. The trouble is that PAUSE thinks 0.1 is a higher version number than 0.2.3. You may think that’s bonkers (помешанные?), and to be honest I agree with you, but we have to live with the way things are. In a nutshell, it’s because when comparing semantic versioning style version numbers with decimal version numbers, the minor (2) and patch (3) are left-padded with zeroes, so that 0.2.3 becomes 0.002003, and that’s effectively what’s compared with 0.1, so 0.1 is higher. If you google "perl version", you’ll find several blog posts explaining this, eg [1] If you want to stick semantic versioning version numbers, it is possible to get PAUSE to forget your old version number, with the "Reset Version" feature, listed in the left sidebar on PAUSE, in the "Utils" section. Once you’ve done that, schedule the deletion of the old release, and once your new release is in the CPAN Index, you’ll need to ask the MetaCPAN team to index your most recent release, or wait for the 0.1 release to be deleted. Personally, I use N.NN for all my module version numbers, as I’ve never done close to 99 releases of any distribution. But if I adopt a module with a different scheme, then I stick with that scheme, as changing schemes can cause problems, as you’ve discovered :-( Cheers, Neil [1] https://xdg.me/blog/version-numbers-should-be-boring/
