| Subject: | t/99_pmv.t test failure with new Perl::MinimumVersion 1.22 |
Hi
First of all, I agree that this is a failure of build when activating
author tests. We in Debian Perl Group try to activate any test which is
possible to quarantee best quality. During such a rebuild of package for
pip it fails to build. There was an update in
Perl::MinimumVersion:
1.22 Wed 25 Nov 2009
- Negative length in 'splice' requires perl 5.5 (Alexandr Ciornii)
- 'mkdir' with one argument requires perl 5.6 (Alexandr Ciornii)
- 'substr' will not be checked if it is a method name (Alexandr Cio=
rnii)
- better tests and fix for 3-arg 'open' (Alexandr Ciornii)
1.21 Tue 24 Nov 2009
- Add 'bytes' to 5.6 pragma (Alexandr Ciornii)
- Add support for "version numbers" like "v1.1.1" (Alexandr Ciornii)
- Reimplement _three_argument_open, more tests (Alexandr Ciornii)
Now check for 3-arg open is working.
- Check 4-arg substr that requires perl 5.5 (Alexandr Ciornii)
- Postfix foreach requires perl 5.004.05 (Alexandr Ciornii)
- Scalar::Util::weaken requires perl 5.006 (Alexandr Ciornii)
- P::MV itself found imcompatibility in 02_main.t with 5.5 (Alexand=
r Ciornii)
Now pip fails with:

The full Bugreport is located at http://bugs.debian.org/560616
The problem is that in the tests there are used syntax not matching the
required version in META.yml. (Furthermore then lib/Module/Plan/Base.pm
has use 5.005.)
Many thanks for considering looking into it,
Bests
