Red Hat Bugzilla 1716422 0 unspecified CLOSED perl-Test-Unit-0.25-32.fc31 FTBFS with perl 5.30: test_numericness test fails on 0xF00 2021-02-22 00:41:40 UTC

Description Petr Pisar 2019-09-05 08:40:35 UTC
perl-Test-Unit-0.25-34.fc32 fails to build in F32 because a test fails:

$ perl -Ilib t/assert.t 
STARTING TEST RUN
1..40
[...]
ok PASS test_assert_does_not_match

not ok ERROR test_numericness
t/tlib/AssertTest.pm:48 - test_numericness(Class::Inner::__A36)
For string '0xF00', expect t but got f
ok PASS test_assert_equals

This is triggered by upgrading perl-libs from 4:5.30.0-444.fc32 to 4:5.30.0-445.fc32.

Perl 5.30 started to misinterpreted strings with "0x" prefix as hexadecimal numbers. I adjusted perl-Test-Unit (bug #1716422). Later Perl authors discovered it is a bug and reverted the change in 5.31.4 with a desire to port it back to 5.30 (RT#134230). I did it in Fedora and as a result, perl-Test-Unit fails again.

I will adjust the tests again.

Comment 1 Petr Pisar 2019-09-05 09:20:13 UTC
I will apply it to F31 after stabilizing the patched perl there.
