Since you have never released the package "rtmros_nextage" into Groovy you can not run a prerelease from the GBP repository.
The fact that the prerelease website offers you "latest" is actually a bug and I will make it not offer that (since there is no released version yet).

If you want to perform a prerelease from the source repo (before doing any release) you have to add you repo to the source.yaml file.
Then you can select the "devel" option on the prerelease website.
