Changes for version 0.001.4 - 2026-10-25
- Bug Fixes
- t/ssh.t: the stand-in for ssh now names the perl running the tests on its first line instead of "#!/usr/bin/env perl". The transport starts that file as a program, so the kernel picked whichever perl came first on PATH - on a smoke tester the system perl, which cannot see the modules the build installed - and the filesync-server it then ran died with "Can't locate Params/Validate/Strict.pm" against a build that never lacked it (GitHub issue #4). The Windows wrapper already named $^X.
- Tests
- t/ssh.t checks the interpreter line of the stand-in it writes, so the PATH-dependent first line cannot come back unnoticed.
