HTML::Clean and IO

[Gunnar Wolf <gwolf@gwolf.org>]

Hi,

I am about to adopt the Debian HTML::Clean package. I noticed there is
a bug report [1] mentioning that every time HTML::Clean is called,
there is a warning about 'Parameterless "use IO" deprecated at
/usr/share/perl5/HTML/Clean.pm line 4'. I am not yet familiar with
HTML::Clean's behavior, but anyway, I must get acquinted with it...

I commented out the 'use IO' line from your package, and it appears to
work fine. I found no mention of IO anywhere in your code. I fed it
some documents I have around here, and it works... But I am sure you
included it for a reason - Please confirm: Would there be a reason not
to remove the line?

Thank you very much,
