Description:
When uploading a new version of a file, the new version should displace the old one. However, the software is not behaving itself at Commons:File:41st_Can_Senate.svg. After four days and dozens of purges and hard reloads, as well as using different browsers and having others on En and Commons check, the old version of the image is still the one that displays on the file page, displays at articles where the image is used, and downloads when clicking the download button (and right click > save image as). Oddly, the thumbs updated correctly and the image will display correctly when adding a question mark and any text after the name of the file (e.g., http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/41/41st_Can_Senate.svg is the old version, but http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/41/41st_Can_Senate.svg?blah is the new).
