ngRoute incorrectly handles route parameter on initial page load

[smashercosmo]

Consider the following source code

angular
    .module('app', ['ngRoute'])
    .config(function($routeProvider){
        $routeProvider
           .when('/pages', {
        })
           .when('/pages/:page', {
        })
    });

If I load my app with initial url of "/pages/1" then it changes to "/pages/:page". Everything is fine with 1.1.5. Problem is only with 1.2 branch.

P.S. There are some troubles with plunker at the moment. Can't save working example.

Did you take this breaking change into account? (detailed in this commit description)

tl;dr: you now need to explicitly include ngRoute as a separate .js file and inject it into your app:

<script src="angular.js"></script>
<script src="angular-route.js"></script>
//[...]
var myApp = angular.module('myApp', ['ngRoute', 'someOtherModule']);

Yes, of course. In other cases router from 1.2.0-rc2 release works exactly the same as in previous 1.1.5 and earlier versions. The only issue i faced is the one i described. When you try to load page initially with named parameter. Just try it and you'll see.

Okay, just making sure! plunkr was taking forever to load for me earlier, too.

This sounds like a regression although I haven't tried to reproduce it right now.

Ok, I made a regression testing on my app and found out that it wasn't an angular issue.
