Description Eduard Kohler 2013-07-04 11:08:13 UTC
Description of problem:

Starting with version 2.xx perl-Net-Server requires perl(Log::Log4perl) which brings in X11.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
perl-Net-Server-2.006-1

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Upgrade from f17
2.
3.

Additional info:

As this component may be used from mail servers (through postgrey component), it seems to me overkill to expect graphical libraries.

Comment 1 Petr Pisar 2013-07-04 12:24:48 UTC
perl-Net-Server → perl(Log::Log4perl) → perl(RRDs) → rrdtool → libcairo.so.2()(64bit) → libX11.so.6()(64bit).

Comment 2 Paul Howarth 2013-07-04 13:34:35 UTC
Updating to the current upstream release 2.007 should resolve this, as the Log::Log4perl dependency is pulled in in such a way that rpm won't find it (i.e. it becomes optional, as upstream intended).

A rawhide build will also need the patch I attached to https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=86707 as IO::Socket::SSL is now trying to verify server certificates by default, which affects Net::Server's test suite.

Comment 3 Petr Pisar 2013-07-04 13:56:15 UTC
I've been thinking long time to sub-package the Log::Log4perl::Appender::RRDs from perl-Log-Log4perl because of this reason. I guess it will not affect much users.

Comment 4 Eduard Kohler 2013-07-04 15:24:36 UTC
Well, Log::Log4perl adds, to my system at least, about 67 dependent packages. A large chunk being other perl modules. The whole overhead in term of size is about 22MB, which is not huge, but so many "unneeded" packages just beg for future problems.

Comment 5 Kevin Fenzi 2013-07-05 21:21:24 UTC
Just bumping to 2.007 and applying the ssl fix, I still get a failed build: 

http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=5578298

I can poke at it more later, or if anyone else wants to just update rawhide/f19, feel free.

Comment 6 Paul Howarth 2013-07-24 10:58:55 UTC
Curious. A scratch build of my local perl-Net-Server package succeeded:

http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=5650875

I'll see if I can figure out the difference.
