Bug #25759 for DBD-Pg: META.yml problems

Sat Mar 24 18:01:37 2007 jmuhlich [...] bitflood.org - Ticket created

Subject:	META.yml problems
Date:	Sat, 24 Mar 2007 18:01:21 -0400

In r7778, turnstep added this line to META.yml : --- #YAML:1.2 And in r9241 he changed that to: --- #YAML:1.3 I am no YAML expert, but YAML.pm's parser interprets that as the "YAML" directive, which indicates the version of YAML a document conforms to. The current official spec states that directives begin with %, but a preliminary (late 2002) version of the spec did use #. Anyway, YAML 1.2 and 1.3 aren't even defined yet, so I'm not sure what you're trying to notate. YAML.pm throws a nasty warning + stack trace during the build when it sees that line. DBD::Pg still builds, tests, and installs OK, but the warning might be frightening to some. Whatever you're trying to do there, I think you should use a different syntax. -- Jeremy

Correct way to generate META.yml is by `make dist`. This will automatically generate header --- #YAML:1.0 1.2/1.3 is version of META. -- Alexandr Ciornii, http://chorny.net

Correct way to generate META.yml is by `make dist`. This will automatically generate header --- #YAML:1.0 1.2/1.3 is version of META.yml spec, not YAML. See http://module-build.sourceforge.net/META-spec-current.html -- Alexandr Ciornii, http://chorny.net

Ah, good catch. See this section in particular: http://module-build.sourceforge.net/META-spec-current.html#metaspec Example: meta-spec: version: 1.3 url: http://module-build.sourceforge.net/META-spec-v1.3.html (Spec 1.1) [required] {URL} This field indicates the location of the version of the META.yml specification used.
