Every version since 20120622 work (except for 20121022). That is code which is almost 10 years old.
- rurban 5y agoyou need to try with all the perl versions, not the parallel versions.
- forgotmypw17 5y agoIn my anecdotal, n=1 experience, nothing Perl-based I've ever used has EVER broken over 20+ years, not even ONCE. Compare this with PHP, whose breaking changes between releases has taken down my sites on multiple occasions. Compare this with Python, whose breaking changes prevent me from running the overwhelming majority of Python things I've tried to use.
