Package: libxml-xpath-perl Version: 1.13-6 Severity: normal the stringification of literals (as returned by findvalue) should allow me to transparently use these like strings/numbers, but that does no longer work.
i'm assigning the result of a findvalue to a hash element (tried scalar,
fails in the same way), and then i do a multiplication with a constant on it.
1.13 fails with:
Operation `*': no method found,
left argument has no overloaded magic,
right argument in overloaded package XML::XPath::Literal
1.11 (oldstable) and 1.12 works fine, all with the same perl 5.8
and parser behind the scenes.
a small example program to reproduce the problem is attached.
