Re^3: Modern::Perl version 2011 required--this is only version 1.03 at my-perl-script.cgi

I figured since my version of Modern::Perl (1.03) came with my version of Perl (5.12.5)...

It's not a core module, so someone bundled it with your version of Perl. Unfortunately, the bundled version predates the year specifier. Upgrading to the most recent Modern::Perl version will let you use a year specifier (and it will be quick and easy).

Multiple ${VERSION}s for same $VERSION by parv (Parson) on Nov 05, 2013 at 17:12 UTC
(After reading M/Perl.pm, I see the validity of year specifier (as version specifier).) chromatic, why have both the regular version string and also (plain) year as version?	[reply]

why have both the regular version string and also (plain) year as version? The integer year lets you see how recent or old the code is at a glance, but it's not a version number. You can install the most recent `M::P` and write `use Modern::Perl '2010';` while still requiring the most recent version.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
