On upstream side, YAML::Any is now deprecated. Only YAML module has an 
internal $VERSION defined.

Since YAML::Any is going out, I'm going to update upstream 
Config::Model::Backend::YAML
to use directly YAML (without version requirement).

In Debian, only libtest-apocalypse-perl is likely to fail:

$ ack 'use\s+YAML::Any\s+\d' --type=perl
libconfig-model-perl/lib/Config/Model/Backend/Yaml.pm
24:use YAML::Any 0.303 ;

libconfig-model-perl/t/yaml_backend.t
11:use YAML::Any 0.303;

libtest-apocalypse-perl/lib/Test/Apocalypse/Dependencies.pm
22:use YAML::Any 0.72;

May be we should patch libtest-apocalypse-perl to use YAML directly and be 
done with it.

All the best
