    I read the issue summary and the criteria for a bug → . While this is clearly a PHP error, it does happen in development and not on production sites. The error message itself gives the developer the information needed to correct the problem. I am changing to a task.

    This may also be working as designed but I will ask in #bugsmash.

    I asked in #bugsmash about this. We agreed that this is a task and larowlan pointed out that this is a suitable first time issue. Adding novice tag.

    InfoParserException exception can handle 'core_version_requirement' issue.

    I agree with #18. The error message is very useful for developers. I don't see what should be changed to make this any better.

    This was open for 10 years and it was changed to a task bit it's imho unclear what the task would be.

    Let's just close it?
