in reply to Module Version Checking - Checking Multiple Installations of the Module

As other replies have already detailed, it loads the first one it finds.

You might look at Exporter::VA, which is my solution to having multiple versions. It has them all in the single file, though, rather than multiple copies of the file name along different paths. You could make a proxy module, say Types_versioned, that looks at the version number passed, looks for all copies for Types, and loads the right one.
