Bug #24778 for C-Scan-Constants: Pre-requisite Data::Flow not listed

Sat Feb 03 16:12:56 2007 jleffler [...] earthlink.net - Ticket created

Subject:	Pre-requisite Data::Flow not listed
Date:	Sat, 03 Feb 2007 13:12:40 -0800
To:	bug-C-Scan-Constants [...] rt.cpan.org
From:	Jonathan Leffler <jleffler [...] earthlink.net>

Fixed 'cp -a' to 'cp -r' and ran into test issue - no Data::Flow listed. When Data::Flow was installed, the code for C::Scan::Constants compiled and installed OK. Problem detected on MacOS X 10.4.8 with Perl 5.8.8. (It is very easy to have unspotted pre-requisite dependencies - it is hard to ensure you have listed them all.) -- Jonathan Leffler (jleffler@earthlink.net) #include <disclaimer.h> Guardian of DBD::Informix v2005.02 -- http://dbi.perl.org/

I have corrected the copy bug in v1.012. Rather than use 'cp' at all I opted to use File::Copy::copy() and thus rely on Perl to do the right thing. I have also added Data::Flow to the list of dependencies in the Makefile.PL as of v1.012. Confirmed that the module builds and tests clean on x86_64 with Perl 5.8.7 and 5.8.8. Recommend upgrading to v1.013 as this version corrects one other minor test issue as well.

I don't plan to post any further comments to this bug, but I did want to mention that v1.015 is now available on CPAN. Besides correcting the Data::Flow prereq issue, this version also resolves a number of other bugs that have been negatively impacting perl-testers reports. I have scheduled v1.011-1.014 files for deletion on CPAN.

Re-marking as resolved, as the last comment was merely advisory vs. reporting continued existence of the issue.
