libtask-weaken-perl 1.03-1 (amd64 binary) in ubuntu saucy
One recurring problem in modules that use Scalar::Util's weaken function is
that it is not present in the pure-perl variant.
.
While this isn't necesarily always a problem in a straight CPAN-based Perl
environment, some operating system distributions only include the pure-Perl
versions, don't include the XS version, and so weaken is then "missing" from
the platform, despite passing a dependency on Scalar::Util successfully.
.
Most notably this is RedHat Linux at time of writing, but other come and go
and do the same thing, hence "recurring problem".
.
The normal solution is to manually write tests in each distribution to ensure
that weaken is available.
