Subject:

Build fails during testing phase

When I am running the test suite for this module, it fails because Pod::Usage is not installed: t/script-checkdigits.t .. Can't locate object method "initialize" via package "Pod::Usage" at /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.3/Pod/Usage.pm line 534. t/script-checkdigits.t .. 1/5 # Failed test 'run with -help' # at t/script-checkdigits.t line 13. # got: '65280' # expected: '0' Can't locate object method "initialize" via package "Pod::Usage" at /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.3/Pod/Usage.pm line 534. When I install Pod::Usage manually, I am able to complete the tests. I would suggest adding Pod::Usage as a build requirement: --- Build.PL.orig Thu May 12 08:26:51 2016 +++ Build.PL Thu May 12 08:20:36 2016 @@ -9,6 +9,7 @@ build_requires => { 'Probe::Perl' => 0, 'Test::More' => 0, + 'Pod::Usage' => 0, }, configure_requires => { 'Module::Build' => 0.38 }, create_makefile_pl => 'small',

Pod::Usage is supposed to be part of a complete perl installation: $ corelist Pod::Usage Pod::Usage was first released with perl v5.6.0

Actually the problem is that Pod::Usage is there, but it seems to be buggy. I see the same error in a perl 5.8.1 installation with Pod::Usage 1.16: $ perl5.8.1 -MPod::Usage -e 'Pod::Usage->new' Can't locate object method "initialize" via package "Pod::Usage" at /opt/perl-5.8.1/lib/5.8.1/Pod/Usage.pm line 532. The earliest working version could be 1.30, because initialize() is only called if it's really there: https://metacpan.org/source/MAREKR/Pod-Parser-1.30/lib/Pod/Usage.pm#L547 So the correct fix would be to put 'Pod::Usage' => 1.30, in the requirements.
