Bug#607547: libperl-minimumversion-perl: false positive for the yada_yada_yada (...) operator

[David Bremner]

Package: libperl-minimumversion-perl
Version: 1.26-1
Severity: normal


Hi, it seems the latest release introduces a new test for the
yada_yada_yada (...) operator. It also seems like this test has some
false positives. I attach a test case, which is derived from the
"runtests" script in lintian.
