Actually the point is that people use underbars in versions to indicate that the version is a dev release. However perl itself treates 0.24_04 as 0.2304: D:\dev\perl\ver>perl -e"print 0.24_04 0.2404 And all im saying is that perl should $VERSION=~s/_//g; before doing 0+$VERSION. Then the warning wouldnt occur. And the warning from $VERSION for this reason is IMO _never_ useful. So it shouldnt happen. Yves -- perl -Mre=debug -e "/just|another|perl|hacker/"
