  Sat Nov 15 20:57:12 2008 FBRIERE [...] cpan.org - Ticket created
Subject: Crypt::SKey does not use/require Exporter
$ perl -Iblib/lib -MCrypt::SKey=compute -le 'print compute()' Undefined subroutine &main::compute called at -e line 1. This is because Crypt::SKey does not use/require Exporter, which never gets loaded, thus never providing import(). (This is not apparent in any test, since Test.pm itself pulls Exporter in.)

This seems to depend on the version of perl being used - on my system, Crypt::SKey loads vars, which loads warnings::register, which loads warnings, which loads Carp, which loads Exporter. I'll add the 'use' statement to the next release. Thanks for the spot. -Ken

You're right; warnings.pm no longer loads Carp at compile-time on 5.10. Show quoted text

Any reason why it's commented out? -- The whole history of computers is rampant with cheerleading at best and bigotry at worst. -- Larry Wall in <199702111730.JAA28598@wall.org>

Argh - the reason is carelessness. I'll try again.
