Thanks Toralf, I thought all these "unescaped left brace in regex" were gone by now, looks like my packages were not clean!

ah - but bug #634946 is still valid, right ?

Comment 11 Bernard Cafarelli gentoo-dev

2017-10-22 21:06:25 UTC

Indeed, I just fixed wmudmount, but #634946 looks valid.

If I got this correctly, this was warning in previous versions, but perl 5.26 made it fatal:
http://search.cpan.org/dist/perl-5.22.0/pod/perldelta.pod#A_literal_%22%7B%22_should_now_be_escaped_in_a_pattern

So now the apps that were not fixed before will fail quite visibly in a tinderbox run :)
