The source for alien 8.90 is missing despite the page for it existing

Asked by Randy J. Ray

If you look at: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alien/8.90

you will see the regular page for alien 8.90.

But if I try to get info on it through the API: https://api.launchpad.net/1.0/ubuntu/+archive/primary?ws.op=getPublishedSources&source_name=alien&version=8.90&exact_match=true&order_by_date=true

I get the following JSON back:

{"total_size": 0, "start": 0, "entries": []}

I don't know if there are other packages with this problem.

Due to an old quirk in the API, you need to use version="8.90" rather than version=8.90.

Can you help with this problem?
