Subject: FAQ: How do I keep my $VERSION up to date without resetting it manually?
The EU:MM::FAQ (for version 6.32) says How do I keep my $VERSION up to date without resetting it manually? ... For SVN ... $VERSION = (q$Revision$) =~ /(\d+)/g; I believe that this always gives $VERSION = 1, and should read: ($VERSION) = q$Revision$ =~ /(\d+)/; I.e. give the match list context so that it returns the match, rather than the number of matches. Additionally I think the 'g' modifier to the match is redundant. Regards, Rob.
Thanks. This fix will be in 6.33.
