| Subject: | Email::MIME can't new() with latest Email::Simple |
With Email::Simple 2.000/2.001, package unit tests for Email::MIME
(which subclasses Email::Simple) die in the symbol-table-update loop at
Simple.pm:184. This complicates installation, obviously :)
Things work properly with Email::Simple v1.999, to which I've now
reverted. I haven't tested alternative versions of Email::MIME, as the
2.000 release of Simple is relatively fresh, and I'm not seeing any
other reports of this error.
I'll be posting this under Email::MIME, as well.
Here's the make test output (CPAN shell test is identical):
