https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2338799 Bug ID: 2338799 Summary: Many core Perl modules are missing Product: Fedora Version: 41 Hardware: x86_64 OS: Linux Status: NEW Component: perl Severity: medium Assignee: jplesnik@xxxxxxxxxx Reporter: davidlevner@xxxxxxxxx QA Contact: extras-qa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx CC: iarnell@xxxxxxxxx, jplesnik@xxxxxxxxxx, kasal@xxxxxx, mmaslano@xxxxxxxxxx, mspacek@xxxxxxxxxx, perl-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, ppisar@xxxxxxxxxx, psabata@xxxxxxxxxx, rhughes@xxxxxxxxxx, spotrh@xxxxxxxxx Target Milestone: --- Classification: Fedora Created attachment 2066675 --> https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=2066675&action=edit List of core Perl modules missing after installing Fedora 41 Description of problem: When I did a fresh install of Fedora 41 on a new computer, many core Perl modules and programs were not installed. I have a fairly complete list of modules that I generated with a Perl script (see attachment). I don't have a complete list of Perl core programs, but I do know that perl5db.pl is missing. You can't run the Perl debugger without perl5db.pl. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Perl v 5.40.0 How reproducible: I only did a fresh install of Fedora 41 once. The problem occurred. I don't have the resources to reproduce the problem on other computers. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a fresh installation of Fedora 41. 2. Search the following directories for the modules listed in the attachment: /usr/local/lib64/perl5/5.40 /usr/local/share/perl5/5.40 /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib64/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 For perl5db.pl, type "which perl5db.pl" or look in all the directories in your execution path for a file of this name. Actual results: perl5db.pl and the modules are not found. Expected results: perl5db.pl and all the modules are found. Additional info: For a discussion of what constitutes a core Perl module, see https://www.perl.com/article/what-is-the-perl-core-/. This article confirms that Fedora has a long-standing problem of omitting core Perl modules. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2338799 Report this comment as SPAM: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/enter_bug.cgi?product=Bugzilla&format=report-spam&short_desc=Report%20of%20Bug%202338799%23c0 -- _______________________________________________ perl-devel mailing list -- perl-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to perl-devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/perl-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
