Hello,
while creating a RPM package for the GPG module, I got an endless loop
searching for the gpg binary because gpg was not installed in the
packaging environment.
Running into an endless loop isn't really nice ;-)
Instead, the installation should abort with an error message if it can't
find the gpg binary.
The code in Makefile.PL seems to use prompt() if it can't find gpg - but
that doesn't work in automated environments like the openSUSE build
service where no human input is possible. prompt() probably returns an
empty string in that case.
operating system: Linux (openSUSE 11.4, kernel 2.6.37) (probably doesn't
matter)
Perl 5.12.3 (probably doesn't matter)
GPG 0.06
Regards,
Christian Boltz
