Re^3: Using Data::Printer from the Perl debugger

IMHO someone should file a bug report with both modules.

I think one of the authors had the behavior of Data::Dump::pp() in mind which doesn't print by itself when called in a non void context.

And the other one just copied the doc without testing.

I'll be glad to, but I haven't done so before. Could you point me in the right direction?	[reply]

Different authors prefer different channels, normally expressed on CPAN. This one wants GitHub issues From https://metacpan.org/dist/Data-Printer/contribute > The main place to discuss about DDP's bugs and features is Github's ticketing system. --> https://github.com/garu/Data-Printer/issues/ I'm afraid you'll need a github account for that.

Filed bug report: https://github.com/garu/Data-Printer/issues/176 There don't appear to be any guidelines for reporting issues with DB::Pluggable. I have emailed MARCEL.	[reply]

I found this issue and have been trying to adopt DB::Pluggable for a couple of years now. The version on CPAN is not the same as the one in github. I have a version that fixes the issue. https://github.com/kcaran/DB-Pluggable	[reply]
