The fewer bits people need tograb to make Koha work the better (although this is easier now that Mike's built the bundle for us.)
I agree with you in spirit. However, what version of Perl are you expecting users to have installed? Some Koha code has 'use warnings' pounded out in favor of -w on the #! line, with a comment that warnings.pm is not available in Perls lower than 5.6.0. Other Koha code has 'require 5.6.1' in it. Quite contradictory. Now we're talking about using a module that's standard as of Perl 5.8. That means non-standard with Perl 5.6, non-standard with Perl 5.0. So - what's the minimum version of Perl that people should be coding for? Should Koha be backwards compatible to Perl 5.0? dbkliv
