Martin Tzvetanov Grigorov commented on AVRO-2434:
-------------------------------------------------

I see no problem with moving to 5.24 for Avro 1.12.0.
The other Avro SDKs also update their language versions for 1.12.0, e.g. the 
Java SDK moves from Java 8 to Java 11 (or maybe 17), the C++ SDK now requires 
C++17 or newer, the Rust SDK requires ~latest-5 (1.78.0 => 1.73.0).

> Make the supported Perl version consistent

>             Project: Apache Avro
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: perl
>            Reporter: Kengo Seki
>            Priority: Major
>
> According to BUILD.md, the supported Perl version seems to be 5.24.1+, while 
> Avro.pm says 5.8.1+.
> {code:title=BUILD.md}
> The following packages must be installed before Avro can be built:
> (snip)
>  - Perl: Perl 5.24.1 or greater, gmake, Module::Install,
> {code}
> {code:title=lang/perl/lib/Avro.pm}
> use 5.008_001;
> {code}
> Which version is the right one? If the former is, we should simply update 
> Avro.pm too.
> If the latter is, we should update BUILD.md and Dockerfile to use Perl 5.8.1 
> for building and testing.
