Subject: Compilation fails on 5.6.0 darwin
Under 5.6.0 (darwin - OS X 10.2) the Auto.pm does not compile. It gives the below error. I really want to use this module after reading about it in the Mar 2003 TPJ article.

% perl -c Auto.pm Auto.pm syntax OK simon@simoncozens-4 ~/cvs/modules/Config-Auto % uname -a Darwin simoncozens-4.dsl.easynet.co.uk 6.4 Darwin Kernel Version 6.4: Wed Jan 29 18:50:42 PST 2003; root:xnu/xnu-344.26.obj~1/RELEASE_PPC Power Macintosh powerpc So it's either not-a-bug, or fixed in CVS. In fact, this might be the fix: http://cvs.simon-cozens.org/viewcvs.cgi/Config-Auto/Auto.pm.diff?r1=1.4&r2=1.5 Please use the latest copy from CVS: http://cvs.simon-cozens.org/viewcvs.cgi/Config-Auto/Config-Auto.tar.gz?tarball=1 -- "Life sucks, but it's better than the alternative." -- Peter da Silva
