  Sun Jul 21 16:53:01 2013 perl [...] toby.ink - Ticket created
Subject: Role::Tiny::With requires a newer version of Exporter.pm than that which comes bundled with Perl 5.6
I'll probably fix this myself; just creating an issue so I don't forget. Exporter.pm only started exporting "import" in 5.57, which was bundled with Perl 5.8.3.

Are you saying that 'import' shouldn't be used, or that the minimum perl version required should be listed as 5.8.3 in metadata?

Possible solutions: 1. replace "use Exporter 'import'" with "use base 'Exporter'". 2. Add a dependency on Exporter 5.57 to Makefile.PL. (It's dual-life.) 3. Stop using Exporter at all. (Role::Tiny itself doesn't use it, so there's no real reason why Role::Tiny::With must.)
