Proposed fix
I had thought about that when I made the package, but I was a bit worried about potential incompatible changes in libev. But I guess if that happened then the package would not build anymore, which is what happens with the strict versioned BR anyway, so the strict "==" doesn't seem to bring any value over a ">=" Thanks for the patch, I'll try to apply/push/build/update tomorrow or next week (bit swamped), but feel free to use your provenpackager super powers and beat me to it. :) Thank you for acknowledge. I will push it into F17--16. perl-EV-4.03-7.fc16 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 16. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/perl-EV-4.03-7.fc16 Package perl-EV-4.03-7.fc16: * should fix your issue, * was pushed to the Fedora 16 testing repository, * should be available at your local mirror within two days. Update it with: # su -c 'yum update --enablerepo=updates-testing perl-EV-4.03-7.fc16' as soon as you are able to. Please go to the following url: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2011-16691/perl-EV-4.03-7.fc16 then log in and leave karma (feedback). This message is a reminder that Fedora 16 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 16. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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 WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '16'. 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 prior to Fedora 16's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 16 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 to click on "Clone This Bug" and open it against that version of Fedora. 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. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping The update has been pushed to the stable repo more than a year ago, not sure why Bodhi never closed this bug report... |
perl-EV build-requires exact version of libev-sources. However spot has rebased libev in F16--17: * Tue Aug 09 2011 Tom Callaway <spot> - 4.04-1 - move man page - cleanup spec - update to 4.04 thus versions do not match anymore. The problem is perl-EV upstream has not yet released 4.04 version. Fortunately, the libev-4.04 seems compatible with libev-4.03 (all tests pass), thus I propose to weak build-time dependency in perl-EV as following: -BuildRequires: libev-source == %{version} +BuildRequires: libev-source >= %{version} Other option is to add Provide: libev-source = 4.03 into libev-source. This issue must be fixed in F17--16.
