Subject: Using $[ instead of $]
JMASTROS/Pod-Inherit-0.07.tar.gz with bleadperl v5.15.4-123-g89474f5 and higher and will fail with next perl release! Sample fail report: http://www.cpantesters.org/cpan/report/2ed24092-3e42-11e1-9bef-27329aeef8c6 There is a new warning in perl that detects use of $[ in numeric context and since Pod-Inherit tests itself for being warning-free it fails a test with new perls. Line 388 of Pod::Inherit is warn "Probable unexpected import of $nice_name from $identify_name into $parent_class" if $[ >= 5.010; Clearly this line confused $[ and $] HTH, Thanks && Regards,
Bah. And I just did an upload today. Okay, it looks like this warning doesn't really work right, anyway. Taking this out and making another emergency release of 0.14.
