Bug #100803 for Filter: lost PAUSE permissions

Tue Dec 09 09:25:17 2014 RURBAN [...] cpan.org - Ticket created

Subject:

lost PAUSE permissions

Looks like I cannot fix and maintain Filter anymore, even if the uploaded number 1.51 made it to RT, and RT tells me I got the perms. The following report has been written by the PAUSE namespace indexer. Please contact modules@perl.org if there are any open questions. User: RURBAN () Distribution file: Filter-1.51.tar.gz Number of files: 57 *.pm files: 20 README: Filter-1.51/README META-File: Filter-1.51/META.json META-Parser: Parse::CPAN::Meta 1.4404 META-driven index: no Timestamp of file: Tue Dec 9 09:25:42 2014 UTC Time of this run: Tue Dec 9 09:27:20 2014 UTC This distribution name can only be used by users with permission for the package Filter, which you do not have. -- Reini Urban

This is a PAUSE permissions problem - cc'ing to the modules list for resolution. On 2014-12-09 06:28:17, RURBAN wrote: Show quoted text

I think this could be just a glitch on PAUSE. Not a data change but a code change. I do not see that your package contains the package Filter.pm and still pause refuses you to index Filter::*, that must be a bug in the code. MUENALAN is not actively using the namespace Filter as far as I can see, so I take the freedom to revoke the permissions so that RURBAN can proceed with indexing. With apologies to all involved people for my pragmatic approach. This is all reversible, just let me know your preferences. Show quoted text

mysql> delete from primeur where package='Filter';

Query OK, 1 row affected (0.33 sec) Show quoted text

mysql> delete from perms where package='Filter' and userid='MUENALAN';

Query OK, 1 row affected (0.11 sec) I would have expected this would resolve the issue but no, Another tweak was needed: Show quoted text

mysql> insert into perms (package,userid) values ('Filter','RURBAN');

Query OK, 1 row affected (0.19 sec) After that the indexer worked. Sorry for the inconvenience, Reini.

I have given this a look, although it was quite a cursory one. I believe that everything is operating as expected, and that your corrective action was a reasonable one. RURBAN was trying to upload a dist called Filter, which means that he needed permission on the package Filter. He didn't have it. You removed it from someone else, and indexing still failed. This is quite correct: although his dist is called Filter, it does not contain a Filter package, so a permission for RURBAN,Filter was not created. Either he could have added a Filter package, or you could have added the permission by hand. I think all is right with the world! -- rjbs
