Subject: t/02-cairo.t fails (with old pdftocairo?)
On a debian/wheezy system I see the following test failure: ... # # Testing PDF::Cairo 1.04, Perl 5.024000, /opt/perl-5.24.0/bin/perl pdftocairo version 0.18.4 Copyright 2005-2011 The Poppler Developers - http://poppler.freedesktop.org Copyright 1996-2004 Glyph & Cog, LLC Usage: pdftocairo [options] <PDF-file> [<output-file>] -png : generate a PNG file ...

(etc) ... It almost looks like the pdftocairo version here is too old...

Yes, it looks like they've significantly changed its functionality since February 2012. Looks like -antialias was added in 0.44.0, so I'll need to add a version check to make sure the tests are skipped.

With 1.05 the tests are not skipped, instead there's a test failure: ... PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1 "/opt/perl-5.28.2/bin/perl" "-MExtUtils::Command::MM" "-MTest::Harness" "-e" "undef *Test::Harness::Switches; test_harness(0, 'blib/lib', 'blib/arch')" t/*.t # # Library versions linked against: # cairo: 1.8.8 # pango: 1.28.1 # freetype: 2.3.11 Bailout called. Further testing stopped: libcairo version must be >= 1.10.0 FAILED--Further testing stopped: libcairo version must be >= 1.10.0 make: *** [test_dynamic] Error 255 (make test exited with 512) CPAN::Reporter: Test result is 'fail', Bailed out of tests. CPAN::Reporter: preparing a CPAN Testers report for PDF-Cairo-1.05 CPAN::Reporter: sending test report with 'fail' via File ... If you want to avoid these unnecessary test failures (which also show up at CPAN Testers) it's probably better to check for the right library versions during configuration time (Makefile.PL or Build.PL) --- this would cause just a NA or UNKNOWN report, which is more appropriate.
