--- Comment #2 from mar...@telka.sk ---
The usage of versions like 5.034001, or 4.000001, or v4.0.1, or 4.0.1 is
common, but all projects I checked so far do so consistently.  The only
exception I found is Mail-SpamAssassin.

The inconsistency is apparently not a problem for Mail-SpamAssassin itself, but
the registry at (Meta)CPAN gets confusing data.

With my packaging hat on: What is the real latest Mail-SpamAssassin version
then?  4.000001 or v4.0.1 or 4.0.1?  We need one.  Just to record it in the
package.  It does not matter much which one it is.  When I try to ask
metacpan.org I'm getting all three answers so I really do not know what do you
consider the real version number.

Some real life example of the confusion:
https://repology.org/project/spamassassin/versions - most projects use 4.0.1,
but there are few cases where 4.000.001 is listed with a note: newest version;
was normalized from "4.000001".
