RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Bug 856840

Summary: perl-IPC-Run needs explicit require for perl-IO-Pty
Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 Reporter: Trevin Beattie <tbeattie>

Whiteboard:
Fixed In Version: perl-IPC-Run-0.84-3.el6 Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Cause: Calling IPC::Run::harness with `>pty>' argument while perl-IO-Tty package is not installed. Consequence: The Perl code fails because it cannot load IO::Pty Perl module. Fix: Dependency on `perl(IO::Pty)' has been added into perl-IPC-Run package. Result: perl-IPC-Run package pulls perl-IO-Tty package into system now, which prevents from unexpected failures while using pseudo-TTY redirection in IPC::Run module.

Description Trevin Beattie 2012-09-12 22:07:51 UTC
Created attachment 612286 [details]
Perl script which calls IPC::Run::harness

Description of problem:
Line 1906 of /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/IPC/Run.pm contains "require IO::Pty;" but this module is not required by the perl-IPC-Run package.  The module is used by IPC::Run::harness.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
0.84-2.el6

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Remove the perl-IO-Tty package if installed
2. Install perl-IPC-Run if absent
3. Run the attached test script
  
Actual results:
Can't locate IO/Pty.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/local/lib64/perl5 /usr/local/share/perl5 /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib64/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 .) at /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/IPC/Run.pm line 1906.

Expected results:
(no output)
