checking modules today as usual (@ .../admin/reports/update), i noticed:

LoginToboggan 6.x-2.x-dev (2009-Sep-30) no available releases found

which i've never seen before. Checking around the site, I can find no trace of "6.x-2.x-dev" ...

where'd it go?

could have been a packaging issue, I see no unpublished releases for 2.x either. That said, I'd remove the 2.x version you have and reinstall 6.x 1.5

odd ... if you google "logintoboggan-6.x-2.x-dev", the 1st hit is:

looks like HEAD's version numbering changed, without branching, afaict.

reluctant to upgrade to "7.x-1.x-dev" while still on 6x, without some guidance from the dev.

so, atm, looks like downgrading is (?) the available option.

It also looks like the whole 6.x-2.x branch is gone from the CVS.

I did a quick diff on the 6.x-1.5 and my last 6.x-2.x-dev (2009-Aug-31), and there are few not huge differences:

1. form 'user_register' in 1.5 is "// Admin created account aren't processed by the module.", vs.
in 2.x-dev was "// Admin created accounts are only validated by the module." and was setting form[#validate] to logintoboggan_user_register_validate()

2. logintoboggan_user_register_validate() changed - no check of user_access('administer users') in 1.5

3. logintoboggan_user() does not handle op=='update' in 1.5 (this is relatively big chunk of code)

Looking at 6.x-1 branch in CVS, it appears more advanced than my last 6.x-2.x-dev (2009-Aug-31). I would wait till 6.x-1.x-dev is published in downloads.

...curious to hear the story behind 6.x-2.x-dev. My guess is it was not different from 6.x-1.x

i created 6.x-2.x-dev from the HEAD branch, with initial plans to diverge from 6.x-1.x-dev with some reorganization, new features, etc. however, this never materialized -- 6.x-1.x-dev and 6.x-2.x-dev never diverged, and now 7.x-1.x-dev is upon us.

so, i repurposed the HEAD branch for 7.x-1.x-dev. at this moment it still has not diverged from 6.x-1.x-dev, but it will very soon as i start the upgrade process.

@PGNetDev: shame on you, running a -dev snapshot... ;) you know you do that at your own risk! that said, you should be able to safely downgrade to 6.x-1.x-dev since they are the exact same codebase. you can probably even downgrade to the last official 6.x-1.x release, but i'd test that first.

@hunmonk
Thanks for the explanation. I guessed right. When can we expect to have a 6.x-1.x-dev snapshot available in the downloads? After code inspection I know I will not downgrade to 6.x-1.5.

vm’s picture

6.x-dev is already available and can be found by clicking the view all releases link on the project page.

I've checked releases - there is still no 6.x-1.x-dev (see the attached screenshot) as of 9:30 PM PDT. Latest 6.x-1.x-dev is June 9, 2008 - 11:32, which is even older than 6.x.-1.5.

you're screenshot is the top of the list.

scroll further down the page. a little more than 1/2 way.

Got it. It is releases weird sorting order.

I am also looking for this. The latest dev should be on the project page. I found it buried in the View all releases page. Can we get this back on the project page?

Status: Active » Closed (fixed)

it is each maintainer's choice whether or not they want to list the development snapshots on the main project page. i choose not to, because i want to encourage people to use official releases.

Thanks for clarifying that hunmonk. I am just so used to seeing it I thought it was broken. I understand your intent.

Cheers,
