Which package? I just tried this cron, and while it did default to
"source" rather the current version - something I'm about to fix :} - it
wouldn't show 0.0 for me. 0.0 is show for packages that don't have a
version stamp - and some of the old packages don't or didn't have
versions. You may have 'lucked' onto one of those in the 'prev' field.
