    <thetext>Following the version link (&quot;v0.8.5&quot; as of this writing) leads to a previous history entry [1] (corresponding to version 0.8.4), whereas the current version link [2] would be expected.

Although a trivial issue, it can become a bit misleading: for example, I&apos;ve taken a few seconds before realizing that the history entry wasn&apos;t the expected one (and, given that I knew exactly what to search for within the history entry, that wasn&apos;t even a typical use-case).

I&apos;ve searched within the bug tracker and the mailing list and didn&apos;t find anything appropriate (but keyword-based searches can sometimes slip the desired items so please feel free to point me out to relevant issues and/or mailing list threads).


Reproduces:
Always.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Open the report&apos;s URL [3];
2. Follow the version link (found at the bottom of the page).

Expected results:
Retrieved link would be the hash corresponding to the latest version entry [2] (&quot;0.8.5&quot;, dated from 2009-03-26).

Actual results:
Retrieved link corresponds to the previous version entry [1] (&quot;0.8.4&quot;, dated from 2008-11-20).
