| Subject: | Deep recursion (maybe with new version.pm?) |
If you look at the CPAN testers reports for ex-newest, then you find
some reports (e.g.
http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.cpan.testers/2009/08/msg4993577.html
) with a "Deep recursion" warning. When looking with ktrace into the
process I see that something tries to open version.pm in a loop, until
no more filehandles are left (the limit on my system is ~22500). Once
the limit is reached, everything is unwind and the tests even got an OK.
This happens not with every test. I suspect that it's related to the
version of version.pm. With version.pm 0.7701 I can reproduce the
problem with every perl 5.8.x and 5.10.x on my system, with older
version.pm I cannot.
