Verbose output from perlbug?

[Shmuel Metz]

Are there any guidelines on when to use -v on perlbug? Is there a down
side to always using it?

Well, it's quite a lot of information, all of which will be posted to
p5p and archived in rt.perl.org and so on. I wouldn't include it unless
you suspect there's something peculiar about your system that's causing
the bug you're reporting. After all, if the information does turn out to
be necessary someone can always ask for it later.

Okay, I'll omit it in the future, unless asked. Thanks.
