Subject: Can't install because of broken Perl version check (a.k.a. Module::Install is the problem, not the solution)
Hello, I don't particularly to bash Module::Install, but it just shows yet another case of it being completely stupid: ERROR: perl: Version 5.008007 is installed, but we need version >= 5.8 at inc/Module/Install/Makefile.pm line 172. It seems M::I is broken WRT to version handling and that you need to specify them the only safe way, and write 5.008001 instead of 5.8.1 Regards -- Close the world, txEn eht nepO.

As of revision 3889 of Module::Install, this should be fixed, with perl_version() recognising three-part Perl versions and normalising them to the old-style 5.008001 form. Unless problems are found in the new code, these changes will be visible in the 0.77 release of Module::Install. If you're eager, you can find the dev branch of the code at: http://svn.ali.as/cpan/trunk/Module-Install/ Now, don't say that randomly complaining about bugs on identi.ca never got you anywhere. ;) Cheerio, Paul

0.66 was released with M::I 0.77, so this should be fixed.
