Subject: CPAN::Meta::Converter zeroes out version ranges
When using Dist::Zilla it looks as if CPAN::Meta::Converter is used to convert the meta definition in dzil into a valid JSON or YAML file in MetaJSON and MetaYAML. If version ranges (pull 5 in CPAN::Meta on github) are supplied to the converter, it turns them into 0. SPECULATION FOLLOWS: Looks like CPAN::Meta::Converter uses version.pm to validate a version. Things like "== 0.1" get turned into 0 for being invalid. :(

Good catch. I guess version ranges are so rarely used "in the wild" that no one noticed. CPAN::Meta::Converter::_clean_version should either be parsing full version ranges or should be handing off to CPAN::Meta::Requirements to do so (if it can handle malformed ones). -- David
