Subject: Devel::Cover-0.65 persistent test bug + fix
Date: Sat, 08 Aug 2009 07:18:55 -0500
To: bug-Devel-Cover [...] rt.cpan.org
From: David Favor <david [...] davidfavor.com>
This persistent problem has been reported for a long time: http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=44905 http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=39558 http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=39249 http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=39127 Many of these bugs I opened 11 months ago. For test cases to pass, the default 'make' target should also do: mkdir cover_db && perl -Ilib cover else the following error may occur: net2#./cover Devel::Cover::DB version 0.65 required--this is only version 0.64 at ./cover line 17. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at ./cover line 17. to create the test data required for 'make test', else all tests fail with failure signatures like this: t/abranch_return_sub.t .. 1/1 Cannot close /runtime/perl-5.10.1-maint-1737/bin/perl -I/root/.cpanplus/5.10.1/build/Devel-Cover-0.65/ -I/root/.cpanplus/5.10.1/build/Devel-Cover-0.65/blib/lib -I/root/.cpanplus/5.10.1/build/Devel-Cover-0.65/blib/arch /root/.cpanplus/5.10.1/build/Devel-Cover-0.65/cover -coverage statement -coverage branch -coverage condition -coverage subroutine -report text: at /root/.cpanplus/5.10.1/build/Devel-Cover-0.65/blib/lib/Devel/Cover/Test.pm line 309.

Hi, Thanks for your reports. I'm curious what you are doing here because I'm not seen any such problems myself. It looks like you running ./cover in the directory of Devel::Cover itself. Is that correct? If so, that's not the way I had in mind to use it, and unfortunately, Devel::Cover cannot be run on itself. Otherwise, perhaps you could let me have some more details about how precisely you can reproduce these problems. Thanks,
With no further information or reports, I'm going to close this ticket. If there's a reason to reopen it, please do so. Thanks very much for the report.
