Bug Information
Severity: Important
Broken in: 0.8.4
Fixed in: (no value)



Subject: Decreasing version number
When you switch from decimal-looking version numbers to multidot version numbers it would be nie if you could follow the (admittedly weird) perl standard semantics of version numbers. Moreover, it is not only nice but also required for certain operations like 'use package version'. 0.8.4 is less than 0.8. 0.800.0 is equal to 0.8. 0.800.1 is larger than 0.8. If a user has written 'use Mojo 0.8' they will not be able to run Mojo 0.8.4 with their code.
Thanks, fixed in next release.
