Hi First of all, I agree that this is a failure of build when activating author tests. We in Debian Perl Group try to activate any test which is possible to quarantee best quality. During such a rebuild of package for File::Remove it fails to build. There was an update in Perl::MinimumVersion:
1.22 Wed 25 Nov 2009 - Negative length in 'splice' requires perl 5.5 (Alexandr Ciornii) - 'mkdir' with one argument requires perl 5.6 (Alexandr Ciornii) - 'substr' will not be checked if it is a method name (Alexandr Ciornii) - better tests and fix for 3-arg 'open' (Alexandr Ciornii) 1.21 Tue 24 Nov 2009 - Add 'bytes' to 5.6 pragma (Alexandr Ciornii) - Add support for "version numbers" like "v1.1.1" (Alexandr Ciornii) - Reimplement _three_argument_open, more tests (Alexandr Ciornii) Now check for 3-arg open is working. - Check 4-arg substr that requires perl 5.5 (Alexandr Ciornii) - Postfix foreach requires perl 5.004.05 (Alexandr Ciornii) - Scalar::Util::weaken requires perl 5.006 (Alexandr Ciornii) - P::MV itself found imcompatibility in 02_main.t with 5.5 (Alexandr Ciornii) Now File::Remove fails with: > make[1]: Entering directory > `/build/user-libfile-remove-perl_1.42-2-amd64-naaHXS/libfile-remove-perl-1.42' > PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1 /usr/bin/perl "-MExtUtils::Command::MM" "-e" > "test_harness(0, 'inc', 'blib/lib', 'blib/arch')" t/*.t > t/01_compile.t ........ ok > t/02_directories.t .... ok > t/03_deep_readonly.t .. ok > t/04_can_delete.t ..... ok > t/05_links.t .......... ok > t/06_curly.t .......... ok > t/97_meta.t ........... ok > t/98_pod.t ............ ok > > # Failed test 't/06_curly.t' > # at /usr/share/perl5/Test/MinimumVersion.pm line 150. > # t/06_curly.t requires 5.006 due to syntax > # version markers for 5.006: > # - _mkdir_1_arg > > # Failed test 't/03_deep_readonly.t' > # at /usr/share/perl5/Test/MinimumVersion.pm line 150. > # t/03_deep_readonly.t requires 5.006 due to syntax > # version markers for 5.006: > # - _mkdir_1_arg > > # Failed test 't/04_can_delete.t' > # at /usr/share/perl5/Test/MinimumVersion.pm line 150. > # t/04_can_delete.t requires 5.006 due to syntax > # version markers for 5.006: > # - _mkdir_1_arg > > # Failed test 't/02_directories.t' > # at /usr/share/perl5/Test/MinimumVersion.pm line 150. > # t/02_directories.t requires 5.006 due to syntax > # version markers for 5.006: > # - _mkdir_1_arg > # Looks like you failed 4 tests of 11. > Failed 1/9 test programs. 4/206 subtests failed. > t/99_pmv.t ............ > Dubious, test returned 4 (wstat 1024, 0x400) > Failed 4/11 subtests > > Test Summary Report > ------------------- > t/99_pmv.t (Wstat: 1024 Tests: 11 Failed: 4) > Failed tests: 3-4, 9-10 > Non-zero exit status: 4 > Files=9, Tests=206, 2 wallclock secs ( 0.04 usr 0.02 sys + 1.69 cusr 0.07 > csys = 1.82 CPU) > Result: FAIL > make[1]: *** [test_dynamic] Error 4 The full Bugreport is located at http://bugs.debian.org/560615 The problem is that in the tests there are used syntax not matching the required version in META.yml.
