Subject: Weak referendes not available on perl < 5.006
Weak references were only introduced in 5.006. So you can shortcut the whole process (plus have yourself get NA test reports instead of FAIL on 5.005) if you just add "use 5.006;" to the top of the Makefile.PL

From: "Adam Kennedy" <adamkennedybackup [...] gmail.com>
A "use" statement for a Makefile.PL is for the minimum Perl version support by the installer, NOT for the module itself. But I get your point. On 04/11/2007, via RT <bug-Task-Weaken@rt.cpan.org> wrote: Show quoted text
