guys, this is the situation:

1. when I first registered, the version was `1.0.0-alpha`, which might be a little strange
2. I tried [1.0.0 pull](https://github.com/JuliaRegistries/General/pull/59724) but it didn’t tell me the reason it failed to merge, and I didn’t understand the `ERROR: LoadError: ArgumentError: first argument must be strictly less than the second argument` thing. So I carefully read the guidelines and guessed that `1.0.0-alpha`=\>`1.0.0` might not be considered a new(`+1`) version.
3. just now i tried [1.1.0 pull](https://github.com/JuliaRegistries/General/pull/59869), but it says “version 1.1.0 skips over 1.0.0” (seems there’s no other errors), so I’m just stuck here.

so what’s wrong with the package and how shall I solve this?

Just read source code of RegistryCI, might be that fault… Let me write an issue…

It was a mistake that RegistryCI allowed the pre-release version. Cf [Bug fix: restore the "no prerelease" versions check; we never meant to remove it by DilumAluthge · Pull Request #450 · JuliaRegistries/RegistryCI.jl · GitHub](https://github.com/JuliaRegistries/RegistryCI.jl/pull/450).
