Subject: VersionFromModule.pm does not support Developer Releases
Hello, I have found some irritating and potentially dangerous behaviour. According to http://www.cpan.org/modules/04pause.html#developerreleases this should be a valid version for a developer release (using underscore): our $VERSION = 0.58_1; but when using VersionFromModule.pm (v0.08) in Dzil I get this release: MODULE-NAME-0.581 The underscore is no more there. Is this intended? Like this it seems, that the developer release will get deployed normaly... this would be bad. But I am not sure of the effect here on cpan / cpantesters and so on. However I would expect that the underscore stays. (I have not tried the "TRIAL" as descriped also in the link above) Greetings
You're doing it wrong. Please read "The underscore convention" section of http://www.dagolden.com/index.php/369/version-numbers-should-be-boring/ Or just use 'dzil release --trial'.
