OK. For the record, I didn't try anything but testing/sid previously.

Most of the Perl / CPAN environment is usually very much backward
compatible, but it's always possible to hit corner cases (e.g.
I remember File::Temp behaving in slightly different ways between
Lenny and Squeeze or something).

Thanks.

May I ask which part of it? I did not find this easily.
(I'd like to improve this after gathering my thoughts, tests, time and
everything else needed.)

TL;DR -> Stacktraces from the perspective of the caller.

The Debian package description reads:

  Description: Perl module to make warns and dies noisy with stack backtraces
    Carp::Always is meant as a debugging aid. It can be used to make
    a script complain loudly with stack backtraces when warn()ing or
    die()ing.


Feel free to ask specific questions if this is still unclear.

Cheers,
