  Mon Nov 25 05:54:22 2013 zefram [...] fysh.org - Ticket created
Subject: installs in wrong place for 5.19
Date: Mon, 25 Nov 2013 10:54:02 +0000
To: bug-CGI.pm [...] rt.cpan.org
From: Zefram <zefram [...] fysh.org>
CGI.pm now contains use if $] >= 5.019, 'deprecate'; which means that on 5.19 it will generate a deprecation warning if it was installed in the core's library directory. The intended rectification is to install it from CPAN, putting it in the site library directory so that it won't generate the warning. But Makefile.PL in CGI's CPAN distro contains 'INSTALLDIRS' => 'perl', meaning that it *always* installs in the core library directory, and so always generates the deprecation warning on 5.19 even if installed from CPAN. The line in Makefile.PL should probably be 'INSTALLDIRS' => $] < 5.011 ? 'perl' : 'site', so that it will install in the site dirs on versions where that's first in @INC. -zefram

Zefram, Does this recently merged pull request address your concerns? https://github.com/markstos/CGI.pm/pull/30 Otherwise, could you submit further refinements via Github? Mark On Mon, Nov 25, 2013, at 02:54 AM, Zefram via RT wrote: Show quoted text

That's almost equivalent to what I proposed, differing only in behaviour on 5.11, which is not important. It fixes the problem. Show quoted text

(Not practically relevant, but) no, I don't drink the Github kool-aid. -zefram

Can't. Github requires one to have an account with them in order to add a comment there. -zefram
