Yesterday, while reading about Hare, I discovered the problem this blog post alludes to (Hare's own module code just assumes if the hash for two modules was identical, they're the same module) and I reported it to Hare's developer list.

I was sort of expecting Drew to... fix it? I mean, what you'd hope for is an updated blog post with a mea culpa in it, but I'm not setting my expectations so high. Fixing the bug seems like a pretty basic place to start though.



Thanks for the email - yours is one of 46 emails in my Hare queue, which is why it has not been addressed yet. I agree with your comments and have filed a ticket to address them, however, and I will answer your email in time. Thanks for your patience!
