+
+    This is a regression test for issue #985. Having multiple `Dataset`s ending
+    in parallel tasks doesn't work if those `Dataset`s are in a module below
+    the `egon.data.datasets` package. In that case the code removing the module
+    name prefix from task ids and the code generating the final dataset task
+    which updates the dataset version once all parallel tasks have finished
+    interact in a way that generates non-distinct task ids so that tasks
+    generated later clobber the ones generated earlier. This leads to spurious
+    cycles and other inconsistencies and bugs in the graph.
