--- Comment #1 from Karsten Bräckelmann <[email protected]> ---
It seems there are Net::DNS tarballs published accidentally, and the Net::DNS
authors actually consider them pre-release beta.

See http://perldoc.perl.org/perlmodstyle.html section Release Considerations,
Version Numbering:

 "A correct CPAN version number is a floating point number with at least
  2 digits after the decimal."

 "If you want to release a 'beta' or 'alpha' version of a module but
  don't want CPAN.pm to list it as most recent use an '_' after the
  regular version number followed by at least 2 digits, eg. 1.20_01."

Even search.cpan.org gets confused by this, showing an inconsistent mix of 0.80
and 0.80_2 in URIs and text.

I believe this should be raises with the Net::DNS team instead. Looking at the
archive of their previous tarballs, they did follow the two digits rule before.
