OK. It turned out to be a lot more work than I originally
anticipated, but I just released Test-Reporter-1.57:
- includes full Perl -V output -- for human consumption
- adds X-Test-Reporter-Perl header -- for easier parsing
Here's the format:
X-Test-Reporter-Perl: v5.12.0 RC0
I think in CPAN::Testers::Common::Article it's just a matter of saving
it from the header into an attribute in new() and then having
_extract_perl_version parse the saved value if it exists instead of
searching the report body.
The header will also be preserved through file save/load, but I have
not yet done corresponding work on the CT2.0
Test::Reporter::Transport::Metabase. (I'm out of tuits for tonight)
It's possible that all 5.12.0 reports on CT2.0 will need to be purged.
I view this all as an awful stop-gap measure, but the value of smoking
against 5.12.0 RC perls seems worth it.
If anyone has problems with 1.57, please let me know ASAP.
