| Subject: | v-string in use/require non-portable |
Loading Proc::ProcessTable under Perl 5.10 (but not earlier Perls)
displays a warning. The easiest way I know to cause it is:
$ perl -W -MProc::ProcessTable -e ''
v-string in use/require non-portable at
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.10.0/darwin-2level/Proc/ProcessTable.pm
line 3.
The easiest way I know to deal with this is to change line 3 of
ProcessTable.pm to
use 5.006;
which is the syntax recommended in
perldoc -f use
The usual data are appended:
$ perl -v
