Data::Dumper issue: V 2.124 'v' 2.125

2016-09-27 Thread Ron Savage
Hi Data::Dumper V 2.125 is requested in the Makefile.PL. Marpa::R3 is getting this error: http://www.cpantesters.org/cpan/report/e20e-818f-11e6-9919-d235d7926715 Any ideas why V 2.125 is not being installed? Is it because Data::Dumper is in core? -- Ron Savage - savage.net.au
