Description

Mod version: YetAnotherConfigLib-3.4.2+1.20.4-fabric.jar
Minecraft version: 1.20.4
Loader: Fabric 0.15.3
Launcher: PrismLauncher 8.3 Flatpak (Linux), PrismLauncher 7.2 macOS

Describe the problem

PrismLauncher shows the mod's name as ${name} and the version as ${version}. This has happened for none of my other mods, nor prior versions of YACL.

This appears to be strictly cosmetic—I've had no issues with running instances with the mod, nor does this incorrect name / version appear in the game logs.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Create a PrismLauncher instance (Minecraft 1.20.4, Fabric)
  2. Add YACL as a mod, either through the built-in downloader (I sourced from Modrinth) or by downloading the JAR straight from the release page

Affected Systems

I've reproduced this both on macOS and Linux versions of PrismLauncher and also an old ManyMC instance. I have no idea if this issue affects other, non-MMC-style launchers.

Severity

Again, this is strictly cosmetic

Research direction

Start by inspecting metadata in YetAnotherConfigLib-3.4.2+1.20.4-fabric.jar and comparing it with a prior YACL release artifact. Reproduce the display in PrismLauncher or ManyMC, then verify that the packaged metadata shows the actual mod name and version instead of literal placeholders.
