Bug Information
Severity: Normal
Broken in: 1.21
Fixed in: (no value)



Subject: Version mismatch warning
Ken, I found an incompatibility between Apache::Test v1.21 and Test::Simple v0.60 when using the -withtestmore import tag. Basically, these two do not play nicely together. Because I'm still using the Debian distribution which is based on mod_perl version 1.999.21, I cannot upgrade to v1.24. The error message in my logs is: [Mon Jun 06 16:51:30 2005] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] Can't use string ("Test::Builder") as a HASH ref while "strict refs" in use at /usr/local/share/perl/5.8.4/Test/Builder.pm line 179.\n Removing the -withtestmore flag or downgrading to v0.54 fixed the errors. Thanks, William

It may soon become irrelevant, since we are going to bundle Test::Builder, check https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/perl/Apache-Test/branches/test-more-unstable -- Show quoted text

That's good news but there will be many folks working under 1.999.21 or earlier. Debian 3.1 was released just recently and it's bundling that version which will cause A::T v1.21 with Test::Simple v0.60 to fail. Just an FYI for folks who happen to get hit with that combination of packages. Perhaps it'd be worth a mention on the Testing page at perl.apache.org.

Mind to move this thread to the test-dev list? http://perl.apache.org/maillist/test-dev.html It's useless to communicate via RT when you need to reach a group of developers. Please repost the whole story. Thank you. Show quoted text

Hi William, Is this still an issue? This ticket has not been touched in about four years, and since 1.21 is no longer available on CPAN I have to assume Debian is pulling a more recent version.
