My bad :-(. In fact I noticed dap-server bundled an old version of HTML::Parser some time ago, I reported it upstream, and the maintainer agreed to remove it. However it crept in later, because the code doesn't work with the new HTML::Parser. I didn't thought about the issue a single second... > boa not been conflicting with mock, but the real issue of dap-server > providing perl-HTML-Parser modules itself would still have been a > problem, albeit a silent one. If there are scripts, rules, and/or In that case, as it doesn't really install HTML::Parser it may have been noticed at some point. But if the perl module is used in the base system, then it'll have screwed everything anyway. Sorry... It shows once more that providing an old code instead of using the system one is bad. -- Pat -- fedora-extras-list mailing list fedora-extras-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-extras-list
