Back in October, I posted a bug to the YAML project which seems to have
been ignored. Package version strings with trailing zeros are being
truncated due to a bug in YAML::Dump. E.g. a package with
$VERSION = "1.10";
gets a META.yml entry like this:
version: 1.10
instead of the correct entry:
version: "1.10"
Consequently, YAML::Load gets
version => 1.1
Does anyone here have any influence in the YAML project to help get
some attention on this bug? The longer it persists, the more bad data
we get in META.yml files on CPAN.
