Bug #77461 for DBIx-VersionedDDL: Tests run a script without specifying which perl to use

Sat May 26 23:04:25 2012 DROLSKY [...] cpan.org - Ticket created

Subject:

Tests run a script without specifying which perl to use

The tests seem to run the migrate_schema script, which has a "#!/usr/bin/perl" line. This isn't the perl I was running the tests with! The tests need to run "$^X path/to/migrate_schema".

Hi I don't understand. The perl in your path explicitly calls this script during testing. The installation process alters the shebang line when moving it to its final destination. To test this out, I compiled another copy of perl from source and this was used rather the the OS default. Can you tell me what your error is and how I can replicate it? Thanks

Compile a new Perl (doesn't matter what version). Put that Perl in your path. Don't install the prereqs for your distro. Then try to run your tests with a _different_ Perl that _is not_ in your path. The tests will try to run the migrate_schema script. It will find the Perl in your path, not the Perl you're running with. -dave /*============================================================ http://VegGuide.org http://blog.urth.org Your guide to all that's veg House Absolute(ly Pointless) ============================================================*/

Hi I'm still lost. Why would you want to try installing the distro without installing the prereqs? On Tue May 29 15:43:31 2012, autarch@urth.org wrote: Show quoted text

The issue is about which Perl is called, not whether prereqs are installed. All you need to do is use $^X instead of assuming that the first "perl" in the path is the Perl being used to run the tests. This is simple stuff.

Sorry - I get you now.This is what I've done in later versions that haven't been released. Show quoted text

that last bit of public condescension was uncalled for.
