Subject:

perl version check fails

I do not have any perl version requirement in my Makefile.PL, but I get the following error when my bundle is attempted to install with CPANPLUS: ERROR: perl: Version 5.008009 is installed, but we need version >= 5.8 at inc/Module/Install/Makefile.pm line 172.

I'd need to see the entire distribution, but if you are using all_from, it will pick up the contents of a "use 5.8" statement inside your .pm module. As a workaround, change that to use 5.008. I'll look into the problem. Adam K 2009/3/11 Martin Thurn via RT <bug-Module-Install@rt.cpan.org>: Show quoted text

Yes, sorry, my module DOES have "use 5.8", I forgot about that when I made this report. Also, I can not reproduce the problem now, so I think there must have been an old version of M::I bundled in there. I guess I really *should* do `make disttest` every time 8-) -- - - Martin 'Kingpin' Thurn

An upcoming version of M:I will also be testing that you have the latest version (when I get around to it) to that would hopefully also help fix the problem. Adam K 2009/3/13 Martin Thurn via RT <bug-Module-Install@rt.cpan.org>: Show quoted text
