Re: "make test" fails installing DBI-1.632 (linux, perl5.8.8)

And then there's the matter of the other two bugs (the incorrect
warning about LANG and the =encoding thing).

Yeah, I agree,  it would save time if there was a check during make test
itself and a die with a version incompatible message.

 So there's no problem now? Or did that just fix t/06attr.t?

Thanks, Carl.  Well, I see that now, but I did not see it before, even
after looking for it.  And it's only a warning; it did not cause a
failure in the Makefile.PL step (exit status = 0).  Additionally, it's
nowhere near the point of failure, which occurred in make test.

Maybe I'm dreaming, but if the wrong version of Test::Simple will
cause test failures, then detecting the wrong version should trigger a
failure and it should be loud.  I spent probably an hour of time
scanning the docs for any mention of the problem, debugging the
failing test, then guessing the cause (maybe there's a more recent
version of Test::More needed to supply the note() function), and
searching on google, to end up deducing that Test::Simple needed to be
updated.

Or, alternatively, some comment in INSTALL or README.md mentioning the
correlation of the symptoms (failed test) with the version of
Test::Simple installed.

But it did say:

Warning: prerequisite Test::Simple 0.90 not found. We have 0.62.


Which is  the same thing, really.

2015-01-08 Thread John Wiersba
After installing the latest version of Test::Simple, all tests passed,
and the installation (and a test script) succeeded.  Problem #3 is
that the make (or make test) didn't fail with something like
"dependency on Test::Simple 0.90 not satisfied".
