Hi,

Nice work on this module, I like it.

There seems to be a problem updating the module from CVS, when I updated to 6.x-2.3.1 the update ran fine but my update status page shows the following even after being refreshed:

Link 6.x-2.3-1
Recommended version: 	6.x-2.3.1 (2008-Jul-19) 	

    * Download
    * Release notes

Includes: Link

Perhaps the wrong version number is being supplied to the module?

Thanks, I changed the version number for Link to "2.3.1" instead of "2.3-1". Hopefully that'll clear things up.

Thanks for that quicksketch, unfortunately it doesn't seem to have fixed the problem! My update manager is still saying that link needs updating, I even tried deleting my current version and reinstalling from CVS.

Any ideas what's going on?

Nate -- this same phenomenon is happening on the D5 branch as well.

Thanks for a great module!

You are improperly using the "extra" field in the version. It should not be a number. You should bump to 2.4 instead of using 2.3.1. The extra field is designed for strings (e.g. "beta1", "rc2", etc.). See this issue as well as:

Yeah, I'm aware of what the extra field is *supposed* to be used for. It seems my little experiment with minor version numbers has not gone over well due to Update Status module. I'm releasing a 2.4 version tonight to solve the problem.
