Maybe something along this lines of: This release brings several incompatible changes as a result of deprecations coming to term [#] and mitigating a potential security issue [#]. I wouldn=E2=80=99t really consider the security risk eliminated, but mitigated as the vector of attack remains if program or module adds the current working directory to @INC on its own.

I would make this look more like a proper list. Typical errors are: * Can't locate inc/... in @INC (you may need to install the inc::... module) * error: ... has no member named =E2=80=98op_sibling=E2=80=99 * Unescaped left brace in regex is illegal in ... --imjhCm/Pyz7Rq5F2 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: Digital signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iNUEAREKAH0WIQRPTtQ2xj0Ap7RjpAAol2NzYdYtXQUCWdj9j18UgAAAAAAuAChp c3N1ZXItZnByQG5vdGF0aW9ucy5vcGVucGdwLmZpZnRoaG9yc2VtYW4ubmV0NEY0 RUQ0MzZDNjNEMDBBN0I0NjNBNDAwMjg5NzYzNzM2MUQ2MkQ1RAAKCRAol2NzYdYt XQZ4AP96xSQYgDPOrWhHJc3h+6lgsgz0o50StAdg2P2BN+rYTgD/U4iZGz0hmL1Q HgDnKTWlNlYYINofmyLdfSBhR7MXlFI= =Jyjb -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --imjhCm/Pyz7Rq5F2--
