Re: monger repository: how to set the default version to install Bill Welliver <hww3[at]riverweb[dot]com> 26-01-2009
Hi,

In order to make a particular version "automatically installable" by 
monger, you need to identify version dependencies for your module 
(technically, each version of the module can be recommended for a 
different version of pike). You can do this from the modules.gotpike.org 
website by clicking on "Edit Dependencies for (version)". You'll need to 
add a dependency for pike that will match the versions of pike that 
version of your module is compatible with.

Example:

Dependency  Minimum  Maximum
Pike          7.6.0  7.7.999

Please let me know if you have any problems or questions!
