bower install installs an old version, because of bower naming convention

[guyzi]

Names that contain '-' are considered pre-released version and not the latest version and thus not downloaded when using bower install.

See this issue for details:
bower/bower#782

I've solved this issue by creating a tag with a name such as 0.4.1

Did you manually create that tag? I'm trying to get 0.4.0-hotfix.1 into my app, and it keeps installing 0.4.

[guyzi]

Yeah exactly. I've created a tag for my own fork though. This is exactly the 'bug', a tag with '-' in its name is not considered the latest version, but a prereleased version (see this bower/bower#782)

[mattgrande]

I changed my bower.json to have the explicit version number (ie, "leaflet.markercluster": "0.4.0-hotfix.1"), and that got it working.

I was trying to say "0.4.0-hotfix.1 or greater," but couldn't get that to work, unfortunately.

This isn't really a markercluster bug.
There will be a new pre-release version soon for 1.0.0 compatibility. Watch #528
