Unable to install google-closure-compiler #185
Description
Composer is unable to install google-closure-compiler package with the composer-asset-plugin due to a version number parsing issue. I found the actual issue to be in Composer's SemVer component, but it seems they're reluctant to change it (see composer/semver#32). So here goes in case there's something that could be done in composer-asset-plugin to remedy the issue.
Here's a minimal composer.json to reproduce the problem:
{
"require": {
"npm-asset/google-closure-compiler": "20150920.0.0"
}
}
composer -vvv update output:
