 (note `999.0-version-not-found`)

 In 0.9.0b5 version is correct.

 Is it due to the fact that 0.9.0b5 was released as wheel, and 0.9.0b6 as
 source package?

 0.9.0b5 can be reuploaded (I think uploading wheel will fix it for clients
 that support wheel) to fix this issue, but it's not required since it's
 beta and new beta will be released soon.

 The main purpose of this issue is to prevent such error in future
 releases.
 How this can be achieved?
