Description Jose Pedro Oliveira 2010-02-21 18:49:44 UTC
Description of the problems:
The latest upstream version is 1.25; there are no EPEL branches (in particular EPEL5)

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Current rawhide version 1.23-4


Expected results:
To have Set::Scalar 1.25 available in Fedora and in EPEL repositories.


Additional info:
* Set::Scalar 1.25 
  http://search.cpan.org/~jhi/Set-Scalar-1.25/

* Diff from Set-Scalar-1.23 to Set-Scalar-1.25

Comment 1 Tom "spot" Callaway 2010-02-22 18:58:38 UTC
Do you need this in any particular Fedora release besides rawhide? If you have a need, I'll push updates to stable branches, but I'd rather not just push updates for the sake of pushing updates. :)

No, a rawhide and an EPEL5 builds are enough for me.

thks,
jpo

Comment 4 Jason Tibbitts 2010-02-23 17:08:47 UTC
CVS done.

Comment 5 Jose Pedro Oliveira 2010-03-01 22:47:38 UTC
Spot,

Could you build perl-Set-Scalar for EPEL5?
The EL-5 branch has already been created by Jason.

tia,
jpo

Comment 6 Jose Pedro Oliveira 2010-03-09 15:23:00 UTC
Would be possible to have version 1.23 built instead (the same that is available for Fedora 11, 12, and 13) and pushed for updates-testing?

Jason created the EPEL-5 branch based on version 1.20 (Fedora 8?).

tia,
jpo

Comment 9 Fedora Update System 2010-03-09 16:40:57 UTC
perl-Set-Scalar-1.25-1.fc13 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 13.

Comment 10 Ralf Corsepius 2010-03-10 05:57:39 UTC
Please also update FC12 and FC11.

Updating EPEL5 and FC14/FC13 only is not helpful.

Comment 11 Tom "spot" Callaway 2010-03-10 13:47:34 UTC
Unless there is a valid need to push updates to stable releases (and no, "keeping up with CPAN" is not a valid need), I do not push updates.

F-13 got the update because it is not yet released.
Rawhide got the update because thats always appropriate.
EL-5 got the update because it had never had a release.

I asked the reporter (jpo) if he had a need for this update in F-11/F-12, and he replied that he did not. If you can come up with a valid need, I'll consider pushing the update for F-11/F-12.

It is - You are

I did not expect a different answer from you. Thanks for contributing your  share to ruinating Fedora by doing a poor job.

> F-13 got the update because it is not yet released.

> EL-5 got the update because it had never had a release.
If you think pushing an untested package into a supposed to be "outdated" distro for beta-testing is a wise decision, I have to disagree.

Pardon, put provided the current insanity of FESCO and FPB, I am not interested in further discussions with you.
