Description Mikolaj Izdebski 2012-11-27 12:24:56 UTC
Description of problem:
rpmdep dies with a perl error

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
1.11-1.fc19

How to reproduce:
$ rpmdep rpm

Result:
Can't use an undefined value as a SCALAR reference at /usr/bin/rpmorphan-lib.pl line 93.

Comment 1 Mikolaj Izdebski 2012-11-27 12:27:44 UTC
The solution is to change return statement of function is_set
from "return ${$r_value}" to "return $r_value and ${$r_value}".

Comment 2 Richard W.M. Jones 2012-11-27 13:06:49 UTC
You need to take this up with upstream:
http://rpmorphan.sourceforge.net/

I assumed that as maintainer you would report this upstream.

Comment 4 Fedora End Of Life 2013-04-03 17:23:17 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 19 development cycle.
Changing version to '19'.

(As we did not run this process for some time, it could affect also pre-Fedora 19 development
cycle bugs. We are very sorry. It will help us with cleanup during Fedora 19 End Of Life. Thank you.)
