Subject: UNIVERSAL->import is getting deprecated with Perl 5.12.0
We have a bug report in Debian concerning the transition to perl 5.12: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=615885. From perl5120delta.pod, which lists significant changes with Perl 5.12.0: The method C<< UNIVERSAL->import() >> is now deprecated. Attempting to pass import arguments to a C<use UNIVERSAL> statement will result in a deprecation warning. From my build log on i386 with perl 5.12.3-1 from experimental: UNIVERSAL->import is deprecated and will be removed in a future perl at t/01_basic.t line 37 I can see this warning in the cpan test results: http://www.cpantesters.org/cpan/report/e4d82ae8-7208-11e0-a6bc-926ac0b02281
