--- comment: | In general nobody wants to see reports about 5.[79] anymore But then on 2009-01-14 my smoker sent this: http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.cpan.testers/2009/01/msg3068489.html which I cannot explain why. CPAN.pm was 1.9205, did it not implement the construct? CPAN::Reporter was 1.13. Cannot reproduce (but did not try very hard) match: perlconfig: version: '^5\.[79]' cpanconfig: test_report: 0 --- comment: | Author would prefer to never see false positives which I cannot guarantee, so we turn off mails for him completely. Main involvement was Digest::SHA which got FAILs during a short phase of 5.9.3 due to some broken headerfiles in these bleadperls. A better solution than disabling reports would be configure stuff that probes for the signature of Newz (or was it Newx?) I had a good email exchange with Mark and so I rediscovered the cpanconfig/test_report distropref setting which I had already forgotten. BARBIE: opt out. Barbie does not want time-in-the-future errors match: distribution: | ^(?x: .^ # never matches |BARBIE/ |MSHELOR/ )| cpanconfig: test_report: 0
