| Subject: | Tests fail on perl 5.8.3 |
Tests fail like:
t/51loop-connect.t ...........
Failed 16/16 subtests
t/61protocol-stream.t ........
Failed 2/26 subtests
By counting test numbers, these both fail at similar points:
(t/51loop-connect.t):
my $listensock = IO::Socket::INET->new( LocalAddr => 'localhost', Listen
=> 1 ) or
die "Cannot create listensock - $!";
(t/61protocol-stream.t):
my $serversock = IO::Socket::INET->new(
Type => SOCK_STREAM,
LocalHost => "localhost",
Listen => 1,
) or die "Cannot create server socket - $!";
This test failure possibly comes from a bug in IO::Socket::INET as
shipped by perl 5.8.3, or any other number of possible causes.
Since rightnow nobody seems to have a requirement as old as 5.8.3 I will
stall this bug.
If someone does want it fixed, please comment here.
