Description
Hiya guys,
i am using Drupal 6 and I checked out the latest version of this module using CVS, I use CVS Deploy module to keep my modules in check. After a routine "available updates" check I got this error (attached)... Any ideas why?

no one else gets this error? I hate being the only one with the problem, comon people dont be shy about it!

I guess the problem is that using a CVS checkout the version string that the Drupal packaging system usually attaches to the .info file ist missing. The message does not mean that the module is not working. It's just not supported by the update module because it can't tell what version it is.

not sure what is wrong, but here is the output of the CVS installed info file:
[foo]$ cat custom_pagers.info; $Id: custom_pagers.info,v 1.5 2008/06/17 20:47:05 eaton Exp $
name = Custom Pagers
core = 6.x
description = Allows administrators to define custom pagers for navigation in lists of nodes.

Yes, it's missing the version string which is added by the packaging system that produces the tar.gz download.
