Description of problem: Using Net SSH Perl from CPAN, expeirencing slow ssh connection. While installing it, noticed Crypt::DH module takes a long time to install. Is there a bug with Fedora that is not playing nice with Crypt::DH. Could it be the different glibc version be affecting it? Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: all the time Steps to Reproduce: 1. install Net::SSH::Perl 2. try to connect with it 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
takes over an hour to install Crypt::DH, so far I am only at this junction: *** ExtUtils::AutoInstall version 0.56 *** Checking for dependencies... [Core Features] - Math::BigInt ...loaded. (1.73 >= 1.60) *** ExtUtils::AutoInstall configuration finished. Checking if your kit is complete... Looks good Writing Makefile for Crypt::DH cp lib/Crypt/DH.pm blib/lib/Crypt/DH.pm Manifying blib/man3/Crypt::DH.3pm /usr/bin/make -- OK Running make test PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1 /usr/bin/perl "-MExtUtils::Command::MM" "-e" "test_harness(0, 'inc', 'blib/lib', 'blib/arch')" t/00-compile.t t/01-dh.t t/00-compile....ok t/01-dh.........ok 18/21
CPAN modules are not the responsibility of the Fedora Project unless they are packaged in Extras, in that case they are the responsibility of the package owner. Since you seem to be installing your own module manually, I must close this NOTABUG. You should either go upstream for help, or file it against glibc if you are certain this a problem unique to our glibc.
Connection time should be better if you install a perl binding for GMP to improve performance of Math::BigInt. for instance Math::BigInt::GMP
