Unable to install using composer: Package firegento/module-devdashboard has no version defined.

In the master branch, the version was unspecified in the composer.json file which leads to errors:

ubuntu@ip-172-31-31-155:/var/www/html$ sudo -u www-data composer require firegento/module-devdashboard

[UnexpectedValueException]

When I unpack the package and specify the version mannualy, then pack it back and re-run installation all is fine.

A version in composer.json is not necessary if tags are used. But since there is no release yet, there are no tags and you have to require a version with "dev" stability. Depending on your composer configuration you have to do this explicitly.

The following should work

composer require firegento/module-devdashboard dev-master@dev --prefer-source

@schmengler maybe we just add the tag 0.1.0 ?

So installation with composer require opencommerce/module-devdashboard will now, if you need
