Re^5: using perldb ( 'b postpone' weirdly broken)

I'm still testing and didn't come to a conclusion why it's broken, but I wanted to give a feedback now:

b postpone PKG::SUBNAME is definitely translated into b SUBNAME after a require or use . Inspecting the breakpoints with L shows exactly the same effect like a manual b SUBNAME after the require.

Difference is that the former just don't break. (???)

I'll try to generate an automated test, probably someone can run it via perlbrew on different versions. (I need a way to direct the output into a parsable variable)

I'll also try to look into the internal DB::data-structures of perl5db.pl
