Hi Ralf, As you know, I'll take care of building perl-Plack in EPEL 9. One of the dependency is mod_perl, which won't make it to EPEL 9 and is marked as abandoned/unsupported for Fedora in the specfile. I'd like to suggest the following tuning to the rawhide branch specfile. It disables mod_perl support for both el9+, but I thought it might make sense to also disable it in F36+. I'd like to get this or a variation of this in rawhide so one can keep a non-diverging history in the epel9 branch. I'll submit a proper PR once you gave me your thoughts on this approach. """ # Build with mod_perl support for Apache HTTP server version 2. # Abandoned/Unsupported in Fedora. +%if 0%{?rhel} >= 9 || 0%{?fedora} >= 36 +%bcond_with perl_Plack_enables_httpd2 +%else %bcond_without perl_Plack_enables_httpd2 +%endif # Recommends IPv6 support to HTTP::Server::PSGI embedded web server %bcond_without perl_Plack_enables_ipv6 """ Regards, Xavier
No way!!! mod_perl is a key component of rt.
Ok, I should have known about that. So I'll remove Fedora from the conditional to keep only EL9, I trust this should be fine with you. Although, you made me curious so I took a look at RT doc, and there are alternatives to mod_perl, which might be worth be looked into at some point if mod_perl is tagged as unsupported/abandoned in Fedora. RT 4.4 doc mentions fastcgi, while RT 5.0 doc mentions mod_fcgid. https://docs.bestpractical.com/rt/4.4.5/README.html https://docs.bestpractical.com/rt/5.0.2/README.html
I will be more than happy to give maintainership of mod_perl to someone indeed interested in it. Ralf, if you need mod_perl, I can transfer the package to you.
FTR, I was setting up RT to run using psgi back in 2013...
(In reply to Emmanuel Seyman from comment #4) > FTR, I was setting up RT to run using psgi back in 2013... I repeatedly tried, but I have never been able to get this working and repeatly asked for assistance. Would it be possible for you to pass on some docs/how-tos rsp. your patches to me?

Something for me to investigate. All I can say for now: rt4+fastcgi had been a dysfunctional mess for a long time. May-be the situation has changed? I don't know. While we're at it: I am eagerly waiting for somebody to review: These 2 block rt-5: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2016587 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2039193 And this one blocks me from upgrading perl-MooX-late (Deep in rt's dep chain). https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2016580
I've filed https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/perl-Plack/pull-request/2.
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 36 development cycle. Changing version to 36.
This message is a reminder that Fedora Linux 36 is nearing its end of life. Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora Linux 36 on 2023-05-16.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, change the 'version' to a later Fedora Linux version. Note that the version field may be hidden. Click the "Show advanced fields" button if you do not see it. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora Linux 36 is end of life.
