yeah, that was my mistake. Clutter perl bindings follow a different
naming scheme, because of CPAN. I rename the tarballs when I upload
them, but I made a mistake and called them clutter-perl-0.4.micro when
they should have been clutter-perl-0.4.0.nano. with Clutter 0.410 I
fixed that: the tarball is called clutter-perl-0.4.1.0.tar.gz.

mmh, I though I didn't relase 0.4.1 but only 0.4.0. the SVN logs confirm
this.

as for numbering policies, just to shed some light:

  * clutter-core follows the usual odd/even numbering scheme;
  * clutter-gst, clutter-gtk and clutter-cairo have their own
    versions, but the are bumped to the same minor release as
    clutter core (so, for instance clutter-gst can be 0.4.203
    if we require 203 releases, but it depends on 0.4);
  * clutter-perl follows a
      major.(minor * 100) + (micro * 10) + nano
    numbering scheme, for CPAN; the tarballs follow a:
      major.minor.micro.nano
    numbering scheme
  * pyclutter follows the same numbering scheme of clutter-gst
    and friends: 0.4 tracks 0.4 release of Clutter (always the
    latest stable release), plus any micro release needed for
    bug fixing and features.

so, for example, the current stable releases are:

  clutter-core: 0.4.1
  clutter-gst: 0.4.0
  clutter-gtk: 0.4.0
  clutter-cairo: 0.4.0
  pyclutter: 0.4.1
  clutter-perl: 0.4.1.0 (0.410)

while trunk is now:

  clutter-core: 0.5.0
  clutter-gst: 0.5.0
  clutter-gtk: 0.5.0
  clutter-cairo: 0.5.0
  pyclutter: 0.5.0
  clutter-perl: 0.5.0.0 (0.500)

if there are any question I'll gladly answer and hopefully clarify
further.

ciao,
 Emmanuele.
