There is only       a 5.32.0-RC0 available. The fix is now in blead (the development branch) and       should be in 5.32.0-RC1 and the 5.32.0. There will be no backport of the fix       to 5.30.x or 5.28.x as it would break compatibility.              The workaround is to disable perl or disable automatic reloading of the config       file? Linking against Perl 5.26.x or earlier should work too.              ---        * Origin: (2:280/464.47)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 90/1 103/705 120/340 601 123/131 154/10 203/0 221/0       SEEN-BY: 226/30 227/114 229/101 200 424 426 664 1014 240/2100 5138       SEEN-BY: 240/5832 5853 6309 249/109 307 317 280/464 5003 5555 288/100       SEEN-BY: 292/854 8125 310/31 320/219 342/200 396/45 423/120 712/848       SEEN-BY: 770/1 2432/390 2452/250 2454/119       PATH: 280/464 240/5832 229/426           |
