Status: closed → reopened

Reopening; most recent version of source:trunk/trac/Wiki.py seems to have this backwards: 

        if version:
            self.add_link('alternate',
                '?version=%s&amp;format=txt' % version, 'Plain Text',
                'text/plain')
        else:
            self.add_link('alternate', '?format=txt', 'Plain Text',
                'text/plain')
            # Ask web spiders to not index old versions
            req.hdf['html.norobots'] = 1

This block will set the html.norobots flag when version isn't specified (most recent page) — this isn't what you want I think.

Moving the html.robots into the first if block will fix this.

Good catch. This regression has been fixed in [1313]. (Please file issues like this as new tickets in the future, though.)
