            Bug ID: 214407
           Summary: news/inn: send-uucp warning with perl 5.24
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: Individual Port(s)
          Assignee: johans at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: naddy at FreeBSD.org
             Flags: maintainer-feedback?(johans at FreeBSD.org)
          Assignee: johans at FreeBSD.org

With the switch to perl 5.24, send-uucp from INN 2.6.0 now generates this
warning:

Argument "0.33_01" isn't numeric in numeric lt (<) at
/usr/local/news/bin/send-uucp line 56.

The Perl code is this:

     51 my $use_syslog = 0;
     52 
     53 eval { require Sys::Syslog; import Sys::Syslog; $use_syslog = 1; };
     54 
     55 if ($use_syslog) {
     56     if ($Sys::Syslog::VERSION < 0.15) {

There is probably a standard idiom to fix this, but I don't know it.
