We take the date string 1-1 from the TeX Catalogue, so it should be fixed
there. Robin?
It's not Robin's problem. I see nothing special about the datestamp
item in parrun.xml vs., say, paresse.xml. I expect our parsing is
somehow failing, or it's an old thing which hasn't gotten updated. I'll
look into.

That must be fixed in the Catalogue by adding
<ctan path='....'/>
I am sure that in one way or the other these things *are* on CTAN.
Norbert, it's not so simple. Many of them are actually not on CTAN,
even though there may be Catalogue entries.
And I don't see what <ctan path=> has to do with it. I didn't think we
depended on the path to find the descriptions. Don't see why we should,
at least.
Later for all this ...
