https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1385280 Bug ID: 1385280 Summary: perl-App-Cmd contains a lot of test files which should not be installed. Product: Fedora Version: 24 Component: perl-App-Cmd Assignee: emmanuel@xxxxxxxxx Reporter: van.de.bugger@xxxxxxxxx QA Contact: extras-qa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx CC: emmanuel@xxxxxxxxx, perl-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Description of problem: perl-App-Cmd rpm package contains a lot of test files which should NOT be installed. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): perl-App-Cmd-0.330-2.fc24.noarch How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. dnf download perl-App-Cmd 2. rpm -ql -p ./perl-App-Cmd-0.330-2.fc24.noarch.rpm | grep /t/ Actual results: /usr/share/doc/perl-App-Cmd/t/00-load.t /usr/share/doc/perl-App-Cmd/t/00-report-prereqs.dd /usr/share/doc/perl-App-Cmd/t/00-report-prereqs.t ...(lot more test files)... Expected results: (empty output) Additional info: Many Perl distributions (they call it "distribution" because term "package" is used for a Perl language construct) contain tests. Perl distribution installer unpacks distribution, run tests, and installs Perl modules to the user system. Tests are NOT installed. perl-App-Cmd rpm package contains a lot of tests, which are installed to the /usr/share/doc/perl-App-Cmd/ directory. This is a bug. Tests are NOT documentation, and so, should NOT be installed into /usr/share/doc/. Moreover, tests should NOT be included into rpm at all, since rpm does not run them before installing the modules. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ perl-devel mailing list -- perl-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to perl-devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
