It is versioned -2, while there never was a -1 in the archive. Ie, the
upload was superseded. The version should stay at -1 until it is actually
published, mentors.d.o supports replacing the same version for this reason.
Thus, could you please squash these two releases into one?
It _is_ possible to have the initial upload start higher than -1, but it
confuses tools, confuses people and requires multiple manual actions that
are easy to get wrong. Thus, I'd strongly recommend avoiding this unless
you have a good reason. Such a reason would be having external users who
received a previous release some other way (such as a ppa, a repository at
work used for non-test deployment, etc).
