This was not passing t/codingstd/perlcritic.t. However, by applying the following patch, I was able to get it to pass:


I should clarify that the file was passing perlcritic.t but was generating a non-numeric value warning:

$ perl t/codingstd/perlcritic.t tools/dev/branch_status.pl
1..1
Argument "5.010_000" isn't numeric in subroutine entry at
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.10.0/Perl/Critic/Document.pm line 139.
ok 1 - Test::Perl::Critic for "tools/dev/branch_status.pl"

I think this is more a bug in Perl::Critic than in perlcritic.t. Cf.: https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=45892.


I subsequently got a reply from Eliott Shank++ in this ticket:

"Yes, version.pm returns "5.010_000" for this case, which, outside of code compilation, isn't considered numeric by perl. The opinion has been that using underscores in version numbers indicates a developer version, which perl 5.010000 is not."

I confirmed that 'use 5.010000;' would enable the file to pass t/codingstd/perlcritic.t as well.

Thank you very much.
