It looks like the dist in question is pinned on some stack other than master. Do you have any other stacks?
There should be no other stacks, and the stacks
command agrees with my belief.

I think I was able to reproduce the situation, and using the delete
command with the --force
option seems to have fixed it, but I don't yet know why.
Beware that delete
is nasty. The effect on revision history is not well defined, and it may make it impossible to revert to certain revisions where the deleted distribution was present.
Fair enough. As long as you have the issue in your sights, I'm good w/ closing this.
I’ve found the problem and I can fix it tomorrow. But the nastiness of delete
will remain. I’m open to suggestions if you have any ideas how it should behave.
I have a patched distribution of Bio-SamTools. I tar'ed it up on a Mac, which seems to have been a mistake. That's a tale for another story.
I re-tar'ed it and wanted to replace the copy in the repo but am unable to. This is similar to a problem I reported to Jeff via email earlier in the week. I am unsure if the Problem Exists Between Keyboard And Chair or if there is a Pinto issue.
I tried to unregister it. Could not because it is pinned. Unpinned it, unregistered it, tried to add the new one, couldn't.
Updated Pinto, just incase. Still no joy.
The tarball is still in the repository but the packages are not in the master stack's index.
