Subject:

Dependency on 5.006 in Build.PL but not in Makefile.PL

As the subject says. On cpantesters I see all tests pass except those with 5.6.2 using the Makefile.PL See the cpantesters wiki for suggestions http://wiki.cpantesters.org/wiki/CPANAuthorNotes Regards,

Well, this is the first line in Makefile.PL: {{{{{{{{{{{ use 5.006; }}}}}}}}}}} This is as indicated here: http://wiki.cpantesters.org/wiki/CPANAuthorNotes In any case, how will adding a requirement for 5.6.x (which already exists) prevent failures on 5.6.2? I don't understand. It seems the failures are caused by an XML::Parser bug which has a quirky reproduction. Regards, -- Shlomi Fish Show quoted text

If I'd got my own mail I'd conclude the guy suggest to 'use 5.008'.

Well, it's not an option. It's a bug in XML-Parser - not in XML-RSS, and I'd still like to support perl-5.6.2. So I'm going to close this bug. Regards, Shlomi Fish

This is a bug in XML-Parser and 5.6.2 - not in XML-RSS.
