Hi,
A recent change[1] to sync-all introduces the "~~" operator of
Perl. It seems to me that this operator is not supported by old Perl.
% perl --version
This is perl, v5.8.8 built for i386-linux-thread-multi
% ./sync-all -r git://github.com/ghc --testsuite get
syntax error at ./sync-all line 904, near ""pull" ~"
BEGIN not safe after errors--compilation aborted at ./sync-all line 906.
Sorry for using old Perl but I appreciate if this operator will be
replaced with others.

Thanks for the heads up Kazu. Should be fixed in 0daee297e3c44c00f54d2be15f13eabdddc6b62f. Cheers, Erik -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Erik de Castro Lopo http://www.mega-nerd.com/
