Any version of
Data::Aliasbuilt before Version 1.08 (Released October 22nd, 2010 BST) won’t work with Perl 5.12 asData::Aliasprior to 1.08 is broken in Perl 5.12. Upgrade to the latest version (1.08 or newer) and it should work!As an interesting side note, it seems like being able to do aliases may be coming to Perl as a language feature in the future, with the cleanup of
:=no longer meaning an empty attribute list. Look forward to it! 🙂
