Debugged program terminated. Use q to quit or R to restart,
use o inhibit_exit to avoid stopping after program termination,
h q, h R or h o to get additional info.
This was fixed in 5.18.3 I understand
(https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=120827) but the newest
available in the repo for 14.04 is 5.18.2.
I am running:
Description: Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS
Release: 14.04
and my perl package is 5.18.2-2ubuntu1
