Summary328: Package dependency version: Higher-version files persisting after downgrade
DescriptionWhen a package file specifies a specific max version of a dependancy (e.g. 0.9.0) but other dependencies have no max, wadf will download and install the latest version (e.g. 1.2.0), and then install the older version over it afterwards.

The problem is that the files from the 1.2.0 version that haven't been overwritten by the downgrade (i.e. files that don't exist in the later version) will not be removed. This can cause the application to behave incorrectly as it has files from mixed versions.
TagsNo tags attached.

I think you mean "files from the 1.2.0 version that haven't been overwritten by the downgrade (i.e. files that don't exist in the *earlier* version)".
If this is the case, it's a fair point but it will be a bug in PEAR.

This *might* be fixed with the upstream PEAR bug fix http://pear.php.net/bugs/bug.php?id=17350
