Perl::MinimumVersion Find a minimum required version of perl for Perl code WoW!!! Good find - thanks for sharing... Frok the documentation - Future plans are to also add support for tracing module dependencies It will be an essential tool as and when that comes to pass. I always struggle to know which version of modules to declare as necessary.	[reply]

I don't think that means what you think it does. I read it as meaning that it will be extended to report the minimum perl version required by the modules on which the originally examined code depends. ie. it will do the same checks but descend recursively into the dependency tree. 🦛	[reply]

I don't think that means what you think it does Ah yes! Perhaps I was being too optimistic... Still, it's all speculation as it hasn't happened yet.	[reply]
