Subject: POE installation glitch
There's a bug with the Gtk testsuite... The Tk testsuite simply skips if it gets an error: t/06_tk.................Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server Xlib: No protocol specified skipped -> all skipped: couldn't connect to display ":0.0" While the Gtk testsuite does this: t/21_gtk.................Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server Xlib: No protocol specified Fri Nov 21 22:42:00 2003 Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: :0.0 at POE/Loop/Gtk.pm line 43. t/21_gtk.................dubious Test returned status 1 (wstat 256, 0x100) And eventually the install of POE aborts due to the error: 1 test and 10 subtests skipped. Failed: 1/37 test scripts, 97.30% okay, 0/3048 subtests failed, 100.00% okay. make: ***[test_dynamic] Error 29 /usr/bin/make test -- NOT OK I would simply suggest that the Gtk testsuite somehow copy the Tk testsuite in it's handling of the display error and simply skip it. -- Apocalypse Homepage: http://JiNxEdStAr.0ne.us IRC: Apocalypse@irc.perl.org IRC: Apocal@EFnet CPAN ID: APOCAL

i've commited better gtk initialization error checking as well as a patch to make the gtk test suite skip the suite if an initalization error is detected. -- Matt Cashner http://eekeek.org eek at eekeek dot org
