Description

This is fixed in perl-5.8.8-10, which has been accepted for FC-6. This might be a bit untimely, but is this just to improve loading times, or is there an actual incompatibility issue with modules built for 5.8.[34] and the perl 5.8.8 package? Pretty much just for the loading time improvements. It was discussed a bit on fedora-perl-devel-list: https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-perl-devel-list/2006-September/msg00028.html I discussed the issue a bit more offlist with Jose, and with Warren Togami, and it was agreed that the best thing to do was to go ahead and drop the directories. That discussion should've been more open, I apologize...we didn't mean to exclude anyone, I think fedora-perl-devel-list got dropped from the recipients accidentally. Do you anticipate any major problems with this change? *** Bug 205624 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** On a belated note... :) I don't anticipate any problems, but it's good to know the history of a change like this when it's not on the perl list. Thanks. |
