Type::Tiny failing on CPANtesters; smartmatch is gone

[jkeenan]

Type-Tiny has begun to fail its tests on CPANtesters. See, e.g., http://www.cpantesters.org/cpan/report/f4153eac-5c9a-11ef-ad2f-c31a2252ae11.

Sample failure output:

syntax error at t/20-modules/Type-Coercion/smartmatch.t line 40, near "3.1 ~"
Execution of t/20-modules/Type-Coercion/smartmatch.t aborted due to compilation errors.
t/20-modules/Type-Coercion/smartmatch.t ......................

The smartmatch operator was removed from Perl 5 blead this month. This will be reflected in the perl-5.41.3 monthly development release currently scheduled for Aug 20 and later in perl-5.42.0. Since quite a few other CPAN libraries depend on Type-Tiny, they will not be testable or installable in dependency-order contexts. Hence, it is recommended that you work around the non-availability of smartmatch and issue a new CPAN release at your earliest opportunity.

Thank you very much.
