Hello,

Maybe it's not a bug, just a limitation.

The current release of Net::DNS::Resolver.pm (v1.06) starts with a BEGIN block that cannot be parsed by ScanDeps

It's like follows:

use vars qw(@ISA);
BEGIN {
        for ( $^O, 'UNIX' ) {
               my $class = join '::', __PACKAGE__, $_;
               return @ISA = ($class) if eval "require $class;";
       }
       die 'failed to load platform specific resolver component';
}

Cheers,
Peco
