##### Description

After restoring data directory ( .ipfs ) from zipped archive, that created earlier.
We're unable to publish IPNS with default key.
Getting Error :
```
{"Message":"can't replace a newer value with an older value","Code":0,"Type":"error"}
```
( IPFS crashed suddenly, so we removed current data directory and restored it from zip archive , that was created 2-3 days ago. After that it , we're unable to publish. Actually, this kind of restore operations were done several times, with no problems. )
