Subject:

test t/order.t failling perl-5.8.3

tried to install Authen::SASL on linux with perl-5.8.3 but test t/order failed. t/order.........Can't locate object method "_secflags" via package "Authen::SASL::Perl::CRAM_MD5" at /root/.cpan/build/Authen-SASL-2.06/blib/lib/Authen/SASL/Perl.pm line 31. This was solved by installing Digest::HMAC_MD5 and then rerunning make test on Authen::SASL. TODO: add Digest::HMAC_MD5 to prereq for Makefile.PL so that it will get caught there. The reason for the failed test is not so obvious. thanks Kev

No. Authen::SASL should skip the test. It was a bug in Authen::SASL::Perl. A fix can be found at http://search.cpan.org/src/GBARR/Authen-SASL-2.06/lib/Authen/SASL/ Perl.pm 2.07 will be released soon. Graham.
