Package: perl-base Version: 5.8.7-10 Severity: normal Something weird seems to be going on with use warnings and the @- variable:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]> perl -e 'use strict; use warnings; "foo" =~ /o/g; print scalar @-, "\n"' 3 [EMAIL PROTECTED]> perl -e 'use strict; "foo" =~ /o/g; print scalar @-, "\n"' 1 The two values output should of course be the same. The weird thing is that I can't reproduce this on my other machine, which has the same perl version. The issue was also raised in comp.lang.perl.misc [1]. Also, on #debian-devel some people could reproduce it, while others couldn't.
