What version of version was it that caused the problem?
I didn't check before updating - but going back through the version.pm
documentation on cpan, version 0.71 of version.pm was the last one to
claim that 0.03 would be stringified as 0.030. (Subsequent cpan versions
state that 0.03 will be stringified as 0.03.) Therefore, assuming that
the documentation is correct, any version of version.pm that's later
than 0.71 (ie 0.72 onwards, I believe) should not produce this failure
with prereq.t.
I can't reproduce this problem with 0.70, 0.71 or 0.72.
Oh ... that seems to complicate things a little.
Just to be sure, I installed 0.71 and the problem re-appeared for me. When I
re-instate 0.7203 the problem goes away.
Michael, does version.pm get loaded when you run prereq.t ?
I'll try to find out some more about what's happening down here.
Cheers,
Rob
