Question

Quite recently, I asked a question about debugging a seg fault: What are some good methods or steps to debug a seg fault in Perl?. Somebody mentioned that Symbol had some deep XS magic in it.

I'm wondering if I can find a bug history for a Perl core module. I tried looking on CPAN, but the change documentation is kept at the project level and not the module level.

See, we run Perl 5.8.2 and Symbol v1.05 and I'm just wondering if one of our issues could be related to a bugfix that occurred between that and the current version.

Was it helpful?

Solution

How about looking in the perl source repository?
