Subject: perl version shouldn't be in PREREQ_PM
ExtUtil::MakeMaker's PREREQ_PM list only perl modules, so 'perl' => '5.004' produces a warning (because there's no $perl::VERSION). Also, there's a "require 5.003_96;" already, so even if it works (actually it doesn't), it would be useless. -- Serguei Trouchelle

This is valid, it shouldn't be there. Also, Show quoted text

This is invalid. The purpose of defining the perl version dependency is NOT related to running the Makefile.PL, it is to provide metadata to META.ymlfor graph-related purposes.
Looking at the actual code, there is no perl dependency set in 1.17 as you describe. So either it's a misfiled bug, or the problem has since been fixed and released already. Resolving NOTABUG.

It's in http://search.cpan.org/src/ADAMK/YAML-Tiny-1.17/Makefile.PL Line 10. -- Serguei Trouchelle

Weird, looks like I removed it from svn after releasing 1.17 but forgot to release 1.18. I'll fix that now. Adam K On 16/11/2007, stro@cpan.org via RT <bug-YAML-Tiny@rt.cpan.org> wrote: Show quoted text

This has since been resolved.
