Re^2: cannot find the Tie::StdScalar module

Tie::Scalar is included with perl since 5.002. But, unsurprisingly, you can't specify a package as a prereq if it isn't a file whose name is derivable from the package name. TheDamian should have caught this bug in his Makefile.PL.

So, is this something that I should be worried about?	[reply]

No. It's a bug in his spec, not the module's function. ⠤⠤ ⠙⠊⠕⠞⠁⠇⠑⠧⠊	[reply]

It appears it's just a bug in the prerequisites list for Regexp::MatchContext, or if you want to look at it that way, in ExtUtils::MakeMaker's checking for available modules. In practise it shouldn't matter as long as you have a "recent" (less than 10 years old) version of perl. "What should it profit a man, if he should win a flame war, yet lose his cool?"	[reply]

Not a bug in EU::MM, unless you want to make that responsible for searching every installed .pm for a package name.	[reply]
