Description Kevin Fenzi 2010-01-05 17:00:27 UTC
I am looking at getting Xfce in EPEL, and xfconf needs this package 
(which in turn needs perl-ExtUtils-Depends which I have also asked to be branched). 

If you make the minor change to perl BuildRequires here the package builds fine on EL-5, 
however, it seems to fail it's %tests: 

...
 t/64bit....................GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_param_spec_int64: assertion `default_value >= minimum && default_value <= maximum' failed at t/64bit.t line 20.
#   Failed test 'The object isa Glib::Param::Int64'
#   in t/64bit.t at line 24.
#     The object isn't defined
Can't call method "get_minimum" on an undefined value at t/64bit.t line 25.
# Looks like you planned 12 tests but only ran 1.
# Looks like you failed 1 test of 1 run.
# Looks like your test died just after 1.
dubious
        Test returned status 255 (wstat 65280, 0xff00)
DIED. FAILED tests 1-12
        Failed 12/12 tests, 0.00% okay

(note this is on a 32bit build). Perhaps something with RHEL's perl ? 

I'd be happy to help maintain for EPEL-5. 

thanks

Please block this on the bug for perl-ExtUtils-Depends, and I'll look at getting this working on EL-5 after the other bug is closed.

Comment 2 Kevin Fenzi 2010-01-05 17:33:03 UTC
Yeah, done.

Comment 3 Kevin Fenzi 2010-03-08 18:41:11 UTC
Hey Spot. Any news here? Have you had a chance to look at the tests? 
Can we just disable them from EPEL? Or is there some way to fix them?

Comment 4 Bug Zapper 2010-03-15 13:46:00 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 13 development cycle.
Changing version to '13'.

Comment 5 Tom "spot" Callaway 2010-07-08 17:44:20 UTC
Built in EL-5. Tests disabled due to the fact that they're acting VERY weird on i386. It would not surprise me to find that there are bugs in this code somewhere.
