Yuck. I went through this, too. It appeared to me that there were a large number (a dozen? I no longer remember) of packages uploaded more than once, without bumping the version, and if you were so fortunate as to get the earlier rather than the later copy, setup won't have updated to the later. It might be easier to blow away your local package directory than to run setup over and over, each time identifying one more package to rename/delete. > At the moment, yes.
