Description Paul Houghton 2013-08-24 19:48:25 UTC

Description of problem:

Performed 'yum install bugzilla' on a 2 month old fresh fedora 19 install with all yum package updates. The checksetup.pl failed because of missing perl module dependancies.

How reproducible:

every time on my system, but don't have any additional systems to test on.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. yum install bugzilla # (repository was: #http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/updates/ )

2. cd /usr/share/bugzilla

3. ./checksetup.pl

Actual results:

a list of missing packages and instructions to run the following commands:
yum install "perl(Chart::Lines)"
yum install "perl(Template::Plugin::GD::Image)"
yum install "perl(GD::Text)"
yum install "perl(GD::Graph)"
yum install "perl(XML::Twig)"
yum install "perl(PatchReader)"
yum install "perl(Authen::Radius)"
yum install "perl(JSON::RPC)"
yum install "perl(JSON::XS)"
yum install "perl(Test::Taint)"
yum install "perl(HTML::Scrubber)"
yum install "perl(Encode::Detect)"
yum install "perl(Email::MIME::Attachment::Stripper)"
yum install "perl(Email::Reply)"
yum install "perl(Daemon::Generic)"

Even after running the suggested commands checkup.pl continued to complain about  the Email::Reply module.

The version installed by yum install was broken and replaced by a newer version.

Note: there is also bug in the Email::Reply CPAN release (1.202). It is not correctly resolving the dependency on the latest Email::Abstract which is also out of date in the yum repository (has 3.002 need 3.005).

Expected results:

checksetup.pl to at least have gotten to the database section. 

Additional info:

My solution:

perl -MCPAN -e shell
cpan> install Email::Abstract
cpan> install Email::reply
cpan> exit
cd /usr/share/bugzilla
./checksetup.pl

Now is complaining about mysql and localconfig, which is expected.

These all look like optional dependencies and checksetup.pl should keep going even if they are missing. Is there anyone of these modules that isn't ?

Are you sure about this ? Email::Reply is definitely optional.

I had a very similar issue where bugzilla checksetup.pl would complain about missing the Email::Send module even though it was already installed.

I had a look at another bugzilla install and found out that the Module::Pluggable module seems required and it indeed fixed my problem.

I think this module should be added as a dependency.

That sounds much more plausible. Paul, is this what you were seeing ?

Removing perl-Module-Pluggable has the effect that checksetup can no longer detect Email-Send. Running the command "perl -MEmail::Send -e '1'" gives the following error :

Can't locate Module/Pluggable.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/local/lib64/perl5 /usr/local/share/perl5 /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib64/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 .) at /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/Email/Send.pm line 10.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/Email/Send.pm line 10.
Compilation failed in require.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted.

So Module::Pluggable is required by Email::Send but the package containing the latter doesn't depend on the former. And bugzilla then fails because Email::Send doesn't work.

Looking at Email::Send's source code, I suspect rpm doesn't understand the 'use Module::Pluggable' line (note the lack of semi-colon at the end) and doesn't include the dependency automatically.

> I think this module should be added as a dependency.

Definatly but it should be added in the perl-Email-Send package where it will get pick up by all Email::Send users and not just bugzilla.

Spot, this one's yours.
