Melpa is installing the old package by default #63

I'm installing from melpa. Looks like that installs the old version by default? From package-list-packages

groovy-mode        201203310931  installed             Groovy mode derived mode

The newer versions are marked as obsolete:

groovy-mode        20170323.817  obsolete              Major mode for Groovy source files
groovy-mode        20170503.148  obsolete              Major mode for Groovy source files
groovy-mode        20170516.1155 obsolete              Major mode for Groovy source files

Probably because the old version is missing a . between date and version.

Never mind, deleting my elpa folder and letting it re-fetch fixed the issue. Sorry to bother you!

Thanks for sorting out the fix as well as submitting the issue. :-)

I hadn't seen that problem before so it is good to know of it, and what the first step is to try to fix it.
