Description
perl-modern = -Dusethreads
This happened to me more than once when installing stuff like Padre that need threading. I wasted 10 min of my life to run it again :)
perl-blead = latest trunk
perl-dev = latest released development release
perl-stable = latest stable perl
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by locating the perlbrew install command and its handling of version names. Trace how stable, development, and blead releases are selected; done means the four requested names work, with perl-modern installing Perl using -Dusethreads.
