Subject: require Storable 2.49
Date: Tue, 8 Apr 2014 19:52:39 +0100
To: bug-forks [...] rt.cpan.org
From: Zefram <zefram [...] fysh.org>
Perl versions 5.19.2 to 5.19.10 shipped with a Storable that can't handle freezing the value being written to a tied variable on those Perls. That breaks forks: https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=121352 It's now been fixed in Storable 2.49 (in blead, not yet on CPAN). forks should declare that Storable 2.49 is a prerequisite when installing on Perl versions 5.19.2 and later. -zefram

Thanks, I'll look at adding this to Makefile.PL. To confirm: this issue only affects dev release Perl 5.19.2 to 5.19.10?
