5 | Title: Perl 5.26 update: possible breakage |

9 | News-Item-Format: 2.0 |
10 | Display-If-Installed: >=dev-lang/perl-5.26.0 |
11 | |
12 | You have just upgraded to Perl 5.26. This release brings several |
13 | incompatible changes, also as a consequence of fixing a security |
14 | problem [1]. While we have made sure that all resulting build |
15 | failures within Gentoo are fixed, this may not be the case for |
16 | runtime issues, and certainly can affect third-party code (e.g., |
17 | "hand-installed" server applications). |
18 | |
19 | Typical errors are |
20 | "Can't locate inc/... in @INC (you may need to install the inc::... |
21 | module)" |
22 | "error: ... has no member named ‘op_sibling’" |
23 | "Unescaped left brace in regex is illegal in ..." |
24 | |
25 | Please see the pages [2,3] for details and report bugs if you run |
26 | into problems during or after the Perl update. |
