Ah so it's the higher version number, and not the more recent release date that becomes the index.
I changed the default major from 1 to 0 in Dist-Zilla on my next release (in addition to scheduling for removal the earlier). The "_Deparsed_XSubs.pm" file comes from the IntelliJ IDEA Perl Plugin that "packages" XS subroutines (https://github.com/Camelcade/Perl5-IDEA) for indexing/reference. I could detect that, and prune (exclude) that file in DistZilla with the "PruneFiles" plugin on next release (major 0). "App-Domain" was there due to name conflict (existing distribution on CPAN), so had to totally rename my distribution to Domain-Details. Btw the scheduled deletion is done already, and that bad version went to BackPAN (guess that's the same as removal). Anyway sorry for the trouble, and thanks for the explanation.
