[Koha-devel] Perl 5.18

[Tomas Cohen Arazi]

The latest Ubuntu LTS release includes Perl 5.18. One of the main
noticeable consequences of this is that some 5.10 features are now marked
as experimental, and hence warnings appear everywhere.

One example could be the use of '~~' (C4/Search.pm:536). These warnings can
be avoided using the following pragma [1]:

no if $] >= 5.018, 'warnings', "experimental::feature_name";

I'd like to know your opinion on how to cope with this. I guess we already
had this kind of problems in the past.

Regards
To+
