Summary: HTML::Template 2.10 versioning problem https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=734253 Summary: HTML::Template 2.10 versioning problem Product: Fedora Version: 16 Platform: Unspecified OS/Version: Unspecified Status: NEW Severity: high Priority: unspecified Component: perl-HTML-Template AssignedTo: tcallawa@xxxxxxxxxx ReportedBy: ville.skytta@xxxxxx QAContact: extras-qa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx CC: tcallawa@xxxxxxxxxx, fedora-perl-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx Classification: Fedora Story Points: --- Type: --- HTML::Template 2.10 is treated by perl's versioning comparisons as a floating point number, which means it's the same as if its version was 2.1. Upstream bug report: https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=70190 Reproducer: $ perl -e 'use HTML::Template 2.6' HTML::Template version 2.6 required--this is only version 2.10 at -e line 1. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at -e line 1. rpm's version comparison is probably unaffected, but anything using e.g. "use HTML::Template 2.x" for x >= 2 is now broken at runtime with HTML::Template 2.10. Packages included in Fedora broken such way include at least perl-HTML-Template-Expr and w3c-markup-validator. I'm not aware of an easy way to fix this in HTML::Template (apart from bumping the version to 3.00 but that's hardly something that should be done in the Fedora package), so I suppose affected packages could be patched so that any versions in their "use HTML::Template" statements are removed.
