Description D. Hugh Redelmeier 2013-07-26 20:45:03 UTC
Description of problem:
when I ran parallel, I get warnings from perl (the languagein which parallel is coded).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
parallel-20120222-2.fc18.noarch
perl-5.16.3-265.fc19.x86_64


How reproducible:
seems to be easy

Steps to Reproduce:
1. parallel </dev/null

Actual results:
defined(@array) is deprecated at /usr/bin/parallel line 119.
        (Maybe you should just omit the defined()?)
defined(@array) is deprecated at /usr/bin/parallel line 585.
        (Maybe you should just omit the defined()?)
defined(@array) is deprecated at /usr/bin/parallel line 631.
        (Maybe you should just omit the defined()?)
defined(@array) is deprecated at /usr/bin/parallel line 632.
        (Maybe you should just omit the defined()?)
defined(@array) is deprecated at /usr/bin/parallel line 633.
        (Maybe you should just omit the defined()?)
defined(@array) is deprecated at /usr/bin/parallel line 666.
        (Maybe you should just omit the defined()?)
defined(@array) is deprecated at /usr/bin/parallel line 1541.
        (Maybe you should just omit the defined()?)
defined(@array) is deprecated at /usr/bin/parallel line 1547.
        (Maybe you should just omit the defined()?)
defined(@array) is deprecated at /usr/bin/parallel line 1553.
        (Maybe you should just omit the defined()?)


Expected results:
silence


Additional info:
I am testing on Fedora 19 with all updates as of yesterday.
A quick look at upstream makes me think that this is fixed there.

Comment 1 Golo Fuchert 2013-07-27 21:24:08 UTC
This is actually a duplicate of #985545. The bug fixing update is already in the updates-testing repository and can either be installed from there or it will be available as a regular update in the next few days.

*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 985545 ***

Comment 2 D. Hugh Redelmeier 2013-07-27 21:30:18 UTC
Oops.  Sorry.  I did a few bz searches but didn't find that one.

Comment 3 Golo Fuchert 2013-07-27 21:57:51 UTC
Nothing to worry about. I am glad that your problem could be solved.
