Subject: Bitwise & usage causing compilation problems on 5.8.0
Text::PDF::Pages has the following block of code: $test = 1; $i = 0; foreach $e ($inh->elementsof) { $test &= $e->val == $bbox[$i++]; } return $self if $test && $i == 4; The "&=" should be "&&=". As it is, some users are getting the following error message: Possible precedence problem on bitwise & operator at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/Text/PDF/Pages.pm line 336. Note: I have not personally experienced this problem, but a user of my CAM::PDF module reported this error message to me. Nonetheless, the code clearly has a typo. Thanks, Chris

Dear Chris, Thanks for this. I've fixed the bug and am uploading Text-PDF-0.27a.tar.gz but because I messed up 0.27 it may not accept 27a hopefully it will. Oops! :) Yours, Martin Show quoted text
