Hello again.
As you might have heard, also the developers of Roundcube are just human beings and thus not always creating perfect and 100% bug free work. The last 0.4.1 release fixed many bugs but also introduced a quite annoying new one.
That's because you put out a prerelease and called it a release!
If you called it 0.4.1-pre1, this one could now have been called 0.4.1-pre2 which can simply be relabeled as 0.4.1 if nothing goes wrong.
Projects with lots of users benefit from a prerelease process because many of the users don't pick up unnanounced base lines from the repository. So you don't get their testing and feedback until you announce something.
