Subject: Does not work on 5.6.2
While watching cpan testers reports I discovered that Pod::Abstract does not work with perl 5.6.2 and I could reproduce a FAIL. The diagnostics look like so: http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.cpan.testers/2009/03/msg3401969.html If you really cannot (or do not want to bother to) support 5.6.2, please declare it with a simple "use 5.008" in your Makefile.PL as duggested here: http://wiki.cpantesters.org/wiki/CPANAuthorNotes This will eliminate the unnecessary FAIL reports and replace them with the neutral N/A. Thanks!
I think I have this fixed with 0.16. I intend it to work in 5.6 but it's a bit awkward without 5.6 installed anywhere. On Sun Mar 08 08:55:46 2009, ANDK wrote: Show quoted text

Seems to be passing in 5.6 as of Pod::Abstract 0.16.
