The reason why is that ID-INTERNAL, will be replaced with 1 but also the comma will be removed and that is wrong. It doesn' necessarily have to be a comma it can be a brackes or plus sign,...
examples:
ID-INTERNAL,
ID-INTERNAL)
ID-INTERNAL+
Any ideas ?
Yes Mr. Seaten.... thts what exactly "-e 's/ID-INTERNAL[^-]/1/g'" is for
this will replace all ID-Internal except if next followin character is other then '-'

extutils::mm_any
ExtUtils::MM_Any(3pm) Perl Programmers Reference Guide ExtUtils::MM_Any(3pm)
NAME
ExtUtils::MM_Any - Platform agnostic MM methods
SYNOPSIS
FOR INTERNAL USE ONLY!
package ExtUtils::MM_SomeOS;
# Temporarily, you have to subclass both. Put MM_Any first.
require ExtUtils::MM_Any;
require ExtUtils::MM_Unix;
@ISA = qw(ExtUtils::MM_Any ExtUtils::Unix);
DESCRIPTION
FOR INTERNAL USE ONLY!
ExtUtils::MM_Any is a superclass for the ExtUtils::MM_* set of modules. It contains methods which are either inherently cross-platform or
are written in a cross-platform manner.
Subclass off of ExtUtils::MM_Any and ExtUtils::MM_Unix. This is a temporary solution.
THIS MAY BE TEMPORARY!
Inherently Cross-Platform Methods
These are methods which are by their nature cross-platform and should always be cross-platform.
File::Spec wrappers DEPRECATED
The following methods are deprecated wrappers around File::Spec functions. They exist from before File::Spec did and in fact are from
which File::Spec sprang.
They are all deprecated. Please use File::Spec directly.
canonpath
catdir
catfile
curdir
file_name_is_absolute
path
rootdir
updir
Thought To Be Cross-Platform Methods
These are methods which are thought to be cross-platform by virtue of having been written in a way to avoid incompatibilities.
test_via_harness
my $command = $mm->test_via_harness($perl, $tests);
Returns a $command line which runs the given set of $tests with Test::Harness and the given $perl.
Used on the t/*.t files.
test_via_script
my $command = $mm->test_via_script($perl, $script);
Returns a $command line which just runs a single test without Test::Harness. No checks are done on the results, they're just printed.
Used for test.pl, since they don't always follow Test::Harness formatting.
