Hi, I am trying to install Event::Lib on my Debian Squeeze x86_64 server. At first I attempted to use aptitude to install libevent-dev and libevent-perl. This did not work, no Event::Lib module installed. I proceeded to remove libevent-perl and attempt to use cpan to install Event::Lib. I then removed libevent-dev from aptitude and compiled libevent 2.0.10 from source. I then went back to cpan and still could not install. So I downloaded the Lib-Event-1.03.tar.gz from cpan website and untarred. Perl Makefile.PL runs all ok and generates file to make. I type make and everything runs ok. When running make test I receive the following error, this is the same error as I have observed in cpan every time: # Quote # Test Summary Report ------------------- t/20_signal.t (Wstat: 0 Tests: 3 Failed: 0) Parse errors: Tests out of sequence. Found (2) but expected (3) t/51_cleanup_persistent.t (Wstat: 0 Tests: 6 Failed: 0) Parse errors: Tests out of sequence. Found (1) but expected (2) Tests out of sequence. Found (2) but expected (3) Tests out of sequence. Found (2) but expected (4) Tests out of sequence. Found (2) but expected (5) Tests out of sequence. Found (3) but expected (6) Files=36, Tests=282, 47 wallclock secs ( 0.14 usr 0.04 sys + 0.60 cusr 0.13 csys = 0.91 CPU) Result: FAIL Failed 2/36 test programs. 0/282 subtests failed. make: *** [test_dynamic] Error 255 # End Quote # Having received this error in make test, I decided to run make install anyway. Event::Lib is copied to place and does work in a simple test script I have. So I guess my questions would be is this a bug? do these test failures even matter? and can I be of help by providing further information? Regards Iain Kay
