[Bug 2246773] New: perl-Devel-Cover needs to be synchronised to perl version currently installed
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2246773
Bug ID: 2246773 Summary: perl-Devel-Cover needs to be synchronised to perl version currently installed Product: Fedora Version: 38 Hardware: x86_64 OS: Linux Status: NEW Component: perl-Devel-Cover Keywords: Upgrades Severity: medium Assignee: spotrh@gmail.com Reporter: rwfranks@acm.org QA Contact: extras-qa@fedoraproject.org CC: perl-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org, spotrh@gmail.com Target Milestone: --- Classification: Fedora
Perl test programs using Devel::Cover emit a warning when running on the "wrong" version of perl.
This happens for each and every test script.
A package dependency needs to be added to force a rebuild of perl-Devel-Cover whenever the perl interpreter is updated.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce: 1. tar xvzf Net-DNS-1.40.tar.gz 2. perl Makefile.PL 3. make test_cover Actual Results: PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1 HARNESS_OPTIONS=j1:c "/usr/bin/perl" "-It" "-MExtUtils::Command::MM" "-MTest::Harness" "-e" "undef *Test::Harness::Switches; test_harness(0, 'blib/lib', 'blib/arch')" t/*.t t/00-install.t ............. This version of Devel::Cover was built with Perl version 5.036000. It is now being run with Perl version 5.036001. Attempting to make adjustments, but you may find that some of your modules do not have coverage data collected. You may need to alter the +-inc, +-ignore and +-select options.
t/00-install.t ............. 1/210 # # Filename not in MANIFEST: lib/Net/DNS/RR/DLV.pm t/00-install.t ............. ok t/00-load.t ................ This version of Devel::Cover was built with Perl version 5.036000. It is now being run with Perl version 5.036001. Attempting to make adjustments, but you may find that some of your modules do not have coverage data collected. You may need to alter the +-inc, +-ignore and +-select options.
...
Expected Results: PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1 HARNESS_OPTIONS=j1:c "/usr/bin/perl" "-It" "-MExtUtils::Command::MM" "-MTest::Harness" "-e" "undef *Test::Harness::Switches; test_harness(0, 'blib/lib', 'blib/arch')" t/*.t t/00-install.t ............. ok t/00-load.t ................ # # These tests were run using: # Net::DNS 1.40 ...
In this particular case there seem to be no ill effects, but there have been occasions in the past where the version mismatch has rendered Devel::Cover unusable.

--- Comment #1 from Jitka Plesnikova jplesnik@redhat.com --- It will be useful to add run-time dependency on perl version used for build.
Requires: perl(:VERSION) = %(eval "`perl -V:version`"; echo ${version:-0})

--- Comment #2 from Dick Franks rwfranks@acm.org --- Q: Is the perl version available to the build process necessarily the same as the perl included in the distribution?

Q: Is the perl version available to the build process necessarily the same as the perl included in the distribution?
No, but it could help us to find out the packages, which need to be rebuild when we update perl to new minor version. Or it can by find as Fails to install package and then new BZ FTI will be reported asap.

--- Comment #4 from Dick Franks rwfranks@acm.org ---
If you know the path to the perl RPM spec for the distribution, the required exactly matching version number could be extracted using this one-liner:
perl -ne 'print qq(version="$1"\n) if /perl_version\s+([\d.]+)/' perl.spec

This is not helpful, you cannot look to perl.spec file.
