Summary: Circular build dependency in perl-DateTime-0.70-3.fc18 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=810510 Summary: Circular build dependency in perl-DateTime-0.70-3.fc18 Product: Fedora Version: rawhide Platform: Unspecified OS/Version: Unspecified Status: NEW Severity: unspecified Priority: unspecified Component: perl-DateTime AssignedTo: steve@xxxxxxxxx ReportedBy: paul@xxxxxxxxxxxx QAContact: extras-qa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx CC: steve@xxxxxxxxx, iarnell@xxxxxxxxx, fedora-perl-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx Classification: Fedora Story Points: --- Type: Bug Regression: --- Mount Type: --- Documentation: --- DateTime has a hard dependency on DateTime::TimeZone and won't run without it. DateTime::TimeZone can be built without DateTime present but the resulting rpm package has a dependency on perl(DateTime) and hence cannot be used to bootstrap the perl-DateTime package. My suggested fix is not to include perl(DateTime::TimeZone) as a build requirement when bootstrapping, and that in turn means the test suite cannot be run when bootstrapping. Since perl-DateTime needs special treatment for bootstrapping, you might as well also add perl(DateTime::Format::Strptime) as a buildreq when not bootstrapping: diff --git a/perl-DateTime.spec b/perl-DateTime.spec index 24cf770..60f5a38 100644 --- a/perl-DateTime.spec +++ b/perl-DateTime.spec @@ -7,12 +7,14 @@ License: Artistic 2.0 Group: Development/Libraries URL: http://search.cpan.org/dist/DateTime/ Source0: http://www.cpan.org/authors/id/D/DR/DROLSKY/DateTime-%{version}.tar.gz -# circular dependency - only used for one test -#BuildRequires: perl(DateTime::Format::Strptime) >= 1.2000 BuildRequires: perl(base) BuildRequires: perl(constant) BuildRequires: perl(DateTime::Locale) >= 0.41 +# Build requirements that themselves require DateTime +%if 0%{!?perl_bootstrap:1} +BuildRequires: perl(DateTime::Format::Strptime) >= 1.2000 BuildRequires: perl(DateTime::TimeZone) >= 1.09 +%endif BuildRequires: perl(Math::Round) BuildRequires: perl(Module::Build) BuildRequires: perl(Params::Validate) >= 0.76 @@ -55,7 +57,10 @@ find %{buildroot} -depth -type d -exec rmdir {} 2>/dev/null \; %{_fixperms} %{buildroot}/* %check +# DateTime::TimeZone is a hard requirement of DateTime, but DateTime::TimeZone itself requires DateTime +%if ! 0%{?perl_bootstrap:1} RELEASE_TESTING=1 ./Build test +%endif %files %doc Changes CREDITS LICENSE README TODO Other notes: You could safely add the release test requirements, even when bootstrapping: BuildRequires: perl(Test::CPAN::Changes) BuildRequires: perl(Test::EOL) BuildRequires: perl(Test::NoTabs) BuildRequires: perl(Test::Pod) >= 1.14 BuildRequires: perl(Test::Pod::Coverage) >= 1.08 BuildRequires: perl(Test::Spelling), aspell-en Latest upstream release is 0.74. -- 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
