Hi, This is a request to add an EPEL7 branch and build for perl-Text-Format. We're using this module in a few local scripts and utilities. -trond
Hi Trond, I already tried and it failed due to missing build requires (like a fair number of other perl modules I maintain) in EPEL. I don't have the list at hand and the koji logs are gone. I'll give it another try and start to chase other maintainers to get the missing build deps in EPEL7, but it could take a bit of time both because of me and others. Regards, Xavier
Thanks Xavier. I'll admit I was lazy and didn't test building in preparation for this bz (I usually do). But I did a scratch-build off the F20 srpm just now, and it built fine, so the build deps all seem to be in place: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=7037062 The resulting rpm also installed fine and works with no issues. Luckily, this should just be a simple matter of requesting an epel7 branch and do a build :) Cheers, -trond
oh, I see now. The current F20 rpm is at version 0.58, while the git tree is at 0.59, which doesn't build on EL7 because of a missing dep on perl(Test::TrailingSpace). I'll ask for the missing module to be branched.
Hi Trond, perl-Text-Format 0.59 is now built and will appear in the EPEL7 repo soon. Regards, Xavier
