Certainly, bleadperl is throwing up more problems. > More ever adding some debugging prints into the test one can see Data::Dumper > treat local hashes and AST hashes in different manner. Just more indentation differences? Or really different? > In addition if we patch the tests, it will start failing on lower perls. Not too much of a problem for us. Either patch the tests only in f14+, or better, simply do something like: make test \ || diff -qb t/ast/00-basic.t{,_} \ && mv -f t/ast/00-basic.t{_,} \ && make test (In reply to comment #3) >Openly said, I don't see much sense in trying to "fix" this package. At the minute, the package itself doesn't seem to be broken - only its tests fail for an understandable reason. >It's not used by Fedora, Think of the DarkPAN! >its upstream build-matrix >(http://matrix.cpantesters.org/?dist=Pugs-Compiler-Rule+0.37) >also speaks a very clear language. That its test fail - but we can see why. >My vote goes to "let this package die". I don't really mind either way. Just playing devil's advocate. But according to rel-eng, Steve needs to kill it, not you (or us). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. -- Fedora Extras Perl SIG http://www.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Extras/SIGs/Perl perl-devel mailing list perl-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/perl-devel
