Repository reporting incorrect plugin ‘active version’ stat

I guess the following things could be a problem:

  • Adding : after header comment “keys”
  • Not using all possible header comments – WP reads the first 8bit (in a not really pleasent way), but I don’t know how the repo does
  • Move the /* into the same line as the <?php tag

If nothing of these are part of the problem, then i don’t know and you should consider contacting the hackers list with this issue.

Edit: One problem I have myself is that the repo is telling me that i have to upgrade one of my own plugins to some complete other. The solution was changing the folder name to something less general.
