bluemonk/net-dns — Issue #30: VERSION.yml is not installed on ruby 1.8.7
Author: wwalker

These steps fail to create a usable net-dns gem:

git clone git://github.com/bluemonk/net-dns.git
cd net-dns
rake gem
sudo rake install pkg/net-dns-0.6.1.gem

The gem installs, but there is no VERSION.yml file, resulting in:
