Package: swig
Version: 1.3.36-1
Severity: normal
Tags: unreproducible
This is a bug which makes libbuffy-perl unusable, but it seems to be
swig's fault. It *could* also be a hardware or local problem as we
fail to reproduce. However, I wanted to make sure there's a record
of it.
When trying to use libbuffy-perl 0.8 (with buffycli), I get:
Bareword found where operator expected at /usr/lib/perl5/Buffy.pm line 636,

(Missing operator before the?)

Looking at /usr/lib/perl5/Buffy.pm, I notice that it's a weird
congolmerate between C and Perl, as if the two had been randomly
concatenated. Look at lines 625-694:
piper:~|master|% sed -n 625,694p /usr/lib/perl5/Buffy.pm

while (ty && (ty->dcast)) {
ty = (*ty->dcast)(ptr);
if (ty) lastty = ty;
}
return lastty;
}

}

*/
SWIGRUNTIME const char *
SWIG_TypePrettyName(const swig_type_info *type) {
/* The "str" field contains the equivalent pretty names of the
type, separated by vertical-bar characters. We choose
to print the last name, as it is often (?) the most
specific. */
if (!type) return NULL;
if (type->str != NULL) {
const char *last_name = type->str;
const char *s;
for (s = type->str; *s; s++)
if (*s == '|') last_name = s+1;
Maybe Perl can do inline C, but the way it transitions just looks
wrong.
As Enrico puts it:
24 08:50 < enrico> madduck: yes, you can see the end of the perl
module ( "1;" ) and the rest looks like C stuff that was inside
a swig buffer
Simply removing everything after /^1;/ on line 626 makes the library
work. Sure seems like swig had a hickup.

I do not use Swig anymore, so please do as you see fit. Thank you for
checking though!
Therefore I am closing this bug.
Thanks, Torsten
