Subject: Only FAILs on cpantesters?
Hi Jochen, http://cpantesters.perl.org/show/PerlPoint-Package.html shows only FAILS. What's going on? Regards,

Hello Andreas, thanks for bringing this up. A new version is in the queue for a while now but still unpublished as it is not perfect yet. So, there was a delay in the test fix, too. Of course the tests should work and so I published a 0.451 package now. Unfortunately it turns out there are new problems (tests fail on *some* platforms), so I will have an additional look. Greetings Jochen

All failed tests were run under perl 5.9.5 or higher. All tests with stable versions suceeded so far. If this becomes a stable trend I think the ticket can be closed, as the remaining fails seem to be related to an issue with "strict" and the Safe module in the developer versions of perl. Jochen

The tests still failing in 0.451 were caused by the use of caller() in the strict module of perl 5.9.5 and higher, which needs to be explicitly enabled when running code with strict under Safe control. Thanks to the help of Andreas and Rafael this could be distilled and fixed. Andreas did a lot of testing and provided a patch, thanks! An improved version 0.452 was published and passed all tests so far, so I close the ticket.
