Subject: | t/15.10-regexp-objects.t: fails against perl-5.29.4 |
Today, as part of assessing the perl-5.30-readiness of a selected subset of CPAN distributions (the "CPAN River 3000"), I attempted to build and test JE on FreeBSD-11 against perl-5.29.4 using 'cpanm' as the installer. I got a test failure which caused JE to be graded FAIL. That grade in turn prevents any of JE's reverse dependencies from being reached in this testing process or from being installed by installers such as 'cpanm' or 'cpan'.
