Author Which Perl version is required to run Crypt::X509 in a save way?
Michael Steller

Hello,

I'm trying to install the CPAN module Crypt::X509 into my Perl
installation. The Makefile.PL starts with "use 5.008005". Why is Perl
5.8.5 required? My Perl installation is version 5.8.2 and another
important to me version 5.8.0 (both on a Linux system).

What is the reason for this requirement? Are the changes between Perl
5.8.5 to Perl 5.8.0 that are very important for running Crypt::X509?

Thanks, Micha.

I put that requirement in, as that was the perl-version I used to
implement Crypt::X509.

No specials of recent perl-versions are used, in fact it would
probably run on perl 5.0 also.

I'll release that requirement in the next version.

Yours,

ok, I uploaded the fixed Version (0.21) to CPAN, it may take a day or
so until it's propagated.
