0.5.1 retagged?

Hi; I'm a maintainer of the Homebrew OS X package manager. We noticed that the checksum of the 0.5.1.tar.gz tarball we fetch from Github changed. Can you confirm this was intentional?

Retagging should really be avoided. This has also messed up the conda packaging, as conda will not recognise it as a newer version, so despite as a user trying to update in a conda environment, it will just say it's already installed.

In order to fix, one has to uninstall, clear the caches of that older poretools 5.1 version and then reinstall. It would have been easier had you just updated the version number. :)
