Hello, I'm using a SLES 9 SP3 System with # perl -v This is perl, v5.8.3 built for i586-linux-thread-multi (with 1 registered patch, see perl -V for more detail) and # uname -a Linux server 2.6.5-7.286-bigsmp #1 SMP Thu May 31 10:12:58 UTC 2007 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux This is the failure I see: # MIME-tools-6.200_02> make test PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1 /usr/bin/perl "-MExtUtils::Command::MM" "-e" "test_harness(0, 'blib/lib', 'blib/arch')" t/*.t t/Body.................ok t/BoundaryDelimiter....ok t/Decoder..............ok t/DecodeWords..........ok t/Entity...............ok t/Gauntlet.............ok t/Head.................ok t/Misc.................FAILED tests 4-6 Failed 3/7 tests, 57.14% okay t/ParamValHeader.......Possible unintended interpolation of @thumper in string at t/ParamValHeader.t line 41. t/ParamValHeader.......ok t/Parser...............ok t/Ref..................ok t/WordDecoder..........ok t/Words................ok Failed Test Stat Wstat Total Fail Failed List of Failed ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- t/Misc.t 7 3 42.86% 4-6 Failed 1/13 test scripts, 92.31% okay. 3/261 subtests failed, 98.85% okay. make: *** [test_dynamic] Error 255 I think my failure may be related to bug #24691 "Test failures with MIME::QuotedPrint 3.01". I have installed the latest Version of MIME-Base64 (it's 3.07) and with it the latest Version of MIME::QuotedPrint. If you need more informations, please contact me.
