Ah.  Yes, the cache persists.  Run:

planet show

Check the version of datalog.plt you have, then run the following,
updating the major and minor version numbers if necessary:

planet remove jaymccarthy datalog.plt 1 1

Then run "planet show" again to make sure it's gone.  Now install again:

planet install jaymccarthy datalog.plt 1 2

Good luck!
