Nathan Goldbaum:

Even though we're on yt 2.5.5, the version string says it is yt-2.5dev.  I would interpret yt-2.5dev as a version of yt from before the 2.5.0 stable release. This leads to confusion when people report their yt version on the mailing list or IRC.

@MatthewTurk, as you were in charge of the releases, was this done on purpose?

To fix this, we just need to adjust the version string in `yt/__init__.py`.  I'll happily fix this if it turns out to have been an oversight.
