I wanted to build an awesome place for people to discuss module specific issues, but I don't have any more time for this, and there are much better places to discuss Perl-related issues. I'd recommend asking your question on Stack Overflow or on Perl Monks.
If you are looking for a Perl tutorial or Perl-related news, I hope these links will serve you well.

Shredder for RT latest version ?
Hi,

Do you plan to upgrade Shredder in order to be compatible with Request Tracker v3.4.x (and more precisely with 3.4.2) ?
I ask because of the changes in the database schema since 3.2.0 version...
Please let me know if I can do anything by myself to make your module work with RT 3.4.2.
Thank you.

Best regards,
Olivier Enault

Re: Shredder for RT latest version ?
Hi Olivier,

I'm not sure if you noticed already but I see there's a new[er] RTx-Shredder available with a date of 21 Jul 2005. Maybe that will help you? I'm not sure what version of RTx-Shredder I'm running but I'm using it successfully with RT version 3.4.2. It runs very slowly for some reason but it does delete the ticket I specify. I'm almost certain I'm not using the current RTx-Shredder (unless a co-worker updated it without my knowledge). I couldn't find the version number in the file but the md5sum is 088e75923b310b546f431523be0c868e if that helps you compare to what version you have. I'm contemplating just going and deleting records with some SQL queries rather than with RTx::Shredder. I'm not really sure if that's a wise idea, but the number of tickets I have times the number of seconds to purge a ticket works out to about 26 days of waiting.

Good luck, Winston

Shredder-0.02 supports RT-3.4+, also this version has test suite, please run it. You can help in writing tests.

Re: Shredder for RT latest version ?
Yeah, it's maybe slow, but speed is not main goal of this project, main goal is DB consistency. I plan to do to do more work on speed latter, somwhere around 0.05-6
