Description Mathieu Bridon 2011-07-14 06:35:29 UTC
Description of problem:
During the unit tests, I get a failure:
Can't locate CGI.pm in @INC (@INC contains: t/ /builddir/build/BUILD/WWW-Mechanize-1.62/blib/lib /builddir/build/BUILD/WWW-Mechanize-1.62/blib/arch /usr/local/lib/perl5 /usr/local/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 .) at /usr/share/perl5/HTTP/Server/Simple/CGI.pm line 12, <DATA> line 16.

See this scratch build for example:
    http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=3198000

Adding the following makes the package build again:
    BuildRequires:  perl(CGI)

Note that this had been fixed in Fedora 15 already:

Comment 1 Mathieu Bridon 2011-07-15 04:10:50 UTC
I just pushed a fix for this issue in the el6 branch of the Fedora dist-git.

However, it's not worth pushing an update just for this, so this will really be fixed in EPEL the next time the package will be rebuilt for other reasons. (this will be perl-WWW-Mechanize >= 1.62-3)

In the meantime, if you need to rebuild this package, don't do it from the source RPM available in the repositories, do it with fedpkg:
$ fedpkg clone --branch el6 perl-WWW-Mechanize (add the --anonymous option if you are not a Fedora packager)
$ cd perl-WWW-Mechanize
$ fedpkg mockbuild

This package has changed maintainer in the Fedora.
Reassigning to the new maintainer of this component.

This message is a reminder that EPEL 6 is nearing its end of life. Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for EPEL 6 on 2020-11-30. It is our policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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 'version' of 'el6'.

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 EPEL version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before EPEL 6 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.
