Unmatched right curly bracket at (eval 48)[/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/perl5db.pl:628] line 5, at end of line syntax error at (eval 48)[/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/perl5db.pl:628] line 5, near "; }" Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): perl-5.8.8-10
This only seems like a syntax error, but it's really a runtime bug. Note that it has been fixed on upstream 5.9.x trunk, but not on 5.8.8 branch: http://public.activestate.com/cgi-bin/perlbrowse/28510 Could we install that patch on Fedora? Not sure what Perl is in F7, but don't forget FC6, please.
Hi Jack, I can apply the patch, but can you point me towards a way to reproduce the issue?
I came across this issue in the process of troubleshooting a bug in E-P-I-C, which is an Eclipse plug-in for editing Perl. http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1729216&group_id=75859&atid=545274 I think that the fix I request will alleviate some (but not all) causes of that bug.
