NIOS installer thinks 10.0 is less than 9.1

Unbelievable but the NIOS installer for 9.1 does not know that 10.0 is larger than 9.1. See attachment.

Hi Guys,

Unfortunately we need to mix 9.1 and 10.0 tools to be able to use NIOS II 10.0.

Even though the 10.0 programmer programs FPGAs, the connection that it provides through the USB Blaster to NIOS II 10.0 is not functional.

I had to program with 9.1SP2 programmer and interface with NIOS II 10.0 Eclipse to be able to talk to a Quartus II 10.0-generated SOPC Builder project targeting a Stratix III FPGA.
