This message is a reminder that Fedora 20 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 20. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '20'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 20 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. Fedora 20 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-06-23. Fedora 20 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 1308425 *** |
Description of problem: Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: everytime Steps to Reproduce: 1. start renrot (e. g. renrot --mtime --name-template="%Y-%m-%d_%Hh%M-%S" --extension JPG -d ) Actual results: program runs fine, but perl displays a warning everytime a new file is processed: defined(%hash) is deprecated at /usr/bin/renrot line 44 (#1) (D deprecated) defined() is not usually right on hashes and has been discouraged since 5.004. Although defined %hash is false on a plain not-yet-used hash, it becomes true in several non-obvious circumstances, including iterators, weak references, stash names, even remaining true after undef %hash. These things make defined %hash fairly useless in practice. If a check for non-empty is what you wanted then just put it in boolean context (see "Scalar values" in perldata): if (%hash) { # not empty } If you had defined %Foo::Bar::QUUX to check whether such a package variable exists then that's never really been reliable, and isn't a good way to enquire about the features of a package, or whether it's loaded, etc. (Maybe you should just omit the defined()?) Expected results: no warning message Additional info: manually changing the line 44 clears the warning
