Bug #47955 for Net-IMAP-Server: between 1.20 and 1.21, select() always produces 0 RECENT mail

between 1.20 and 1.21, select() always produces 0 RECENT mail

I'm going to really narrow this down later, but it affected a large portion of the tests in Net::IMAP::Simple. I don't know if it's a simple (test) bug or a net-imap-server bug, but I suspect the later since the behavior is quite new. http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.cpan.testers/2009/07/msg4579827.html -- If riding in an airplane is flying, then riding in a boat is swimming. 110 jumps, 45.0 minutes of freefall, 86.2 freefall miles.

I'm totally willing to believe it's my bad. I can kinda replicate the bug with 'make test', though it's harder to debug because for some reason the tests hang under `prove`. I'm seeing the following (with net-imap-simple 1.1900) Failures with Net::IMAP::Server 1.20: ----------------------------------- t/15_flags.t (Wstat: 0 Tests: 52 Failed: 12) Failed tests: 1-2, 5, 8, 10, 13, 15, 18, 20, 23, 25, 28 t/22_copy_multiple.t (Wstat: 0 Tests: 5 Failed: 1) Failed test: 1 t/22_delete_multiple.t (Wstat: 0 Tests: 8 Failed: 3) Failed tests: 1, 7-8 Failures with Net::IMAP::Server 1.20: ----------------------------------- t/07_select_and_examine.t (Wstat: 65280 Tests: 5 Failed: 1) Failed test: 5 Non-zero exit status: 255 Parse errors: Bad plan.

Scratch that. I'm getting horribly inconsistent results from test run to test run. Tests seems to have some caching or race condition in them somewhere that causes them to fail at random. Any guesses what might cause that? - Alex -- Networking -- only one letter away from not working

I've been thinking about including specific versions of IMAP::Server in my ::Simple so you don't have to worry about that kind of thing. Show quoted text

Maybe if you did the same. And we could just co-ordinate upgrading each-other's test suites? Just a brainstorm. -- If riding in an airplane is flying, then riding in a boat is swimming. 110 jumps, 45.0 minutes of freefall, 86.2 freefall miles.

I'm more than a little surprised this package isn't on github... I had to build a git repo with git-cpan-import to do the bisect. :( -- If riding in an airplane is flying, then riding in a boat is swimming. 110 jumps, 45.0 minutes of freefall, 86.2 freefall miles.

Woopsie. I really should have looked first. Why isn't it in the META.yml? -- If riding in an airplane is flying, then riding in a boat is swimming. 110 jumps, 45.0 minutes of freefall, 86.2 freefall miles.

Found the exact commit that did it: 4cd5101 Not sure why yet, other priorities, will post more later. -- If riding in an airplane is flying, then riding in a boat is swimming. 110 jumps, 45.0 minutes of freefall, 86.2 freefall miles.

Got it I think. I tried to find a way to add this ticket to the recipient list for the pull request on github, but I couldn't figure it out. Presumably there's a way to do it.

Hm, after some thought, I disagree -- I think it's a missing =. Check that 3c49130, now on github, fixes this? - Alex -- Networking -- only one letter away from not working

Yeah, your patch makes more sense than mine. Also, it tests clean for me now. -- If riding in an airplane is flying, then riding in a boat is swimming. 110 jumps, 45.0 minutes of freefall, 86.2 freefall miles.
