-DESCRIPTION
- The CPAN module automates or at least simplifies the make and install of
- perl modules and extensions. It includes some primitive searching
- capabilities and knows how to use Net::FTP, LWP, and certain external
- download clients to fetch distributions from the net.
-
- These are fetched from one or more mirrored CPAN (Comprehensive Perl
- Archive Network) sites and unpacked in a dedicated directory.
-
- The CPAN module also supports named and versioned *bundles* of modules.
- Bundles simplify handling of sets of related modules. See Bundles below.
-
- The package contains a session manager and a cache manager. The session
- manager keeps track of what has been fetched, built, and installed in
- the current session. The cache manager keeps track of the disk space
- occupied by the make processes and deletes excess space using a simple
- FIFO mechanism.
-
- All methods provided are accessible in a programmer style and in an
- interactive shell style.
-
- CPAN::shell([$prompt, $command]) Starting Interactive Mode
- Enter interactive mode by running
-
- perl -MCPAN -e shell
-
- or
-
- cpan
-
- which puts you into a readline interface. If "Term::ReadKey" and either
- of "Term::ReadLine::Perl" or "Term::ReadLine::Gnu" are installed,
- history and command completion are supported.
-
- Once at the command line, type "h" for one-page help screen; the rest
- should be self-explanatory.
-
- The function call "shell" takes two optional arguments: one the prompt,
- the second the default initial command line (the latter only works if a
- real ReadLine interface module is installed).
-
- The most common uses of the interactive modes are
-
- Searching for authors, bundles, distribution files and modules
- There are corresponding one-letter commands "a", "b", "d", and "m" for
- each of the four categories and another, "i" for any of the mentioned
- four. Each of the four entities is implemented as a class with
- slightly differing methods for displaying an object.
-
- Arguments to these commands are either strings exactly matching the
- identification string of an object, or regular expressions matched
- case-insensitively against various attributes of the objects. The
- parser only recognizes a regular expression when you enclose it with
- slashes.
-
- The principle is that the number of objects found influences how an
- item is displayed. If the search finds one item, the result is
- displayed with the rather verbose method "as_string", but if more than
- one is found, each object is displayed with the terse method
- "as_glimpse".

- Module Filter::NumberLines (BEATNIK/Filter-NumberLines-0.02.tar.gz)
- Author [...]
-
- The examples illustrate several aspects: the first three queries
- target modules, authors, or distros directly and yield exactly one
- result. The last two use regular expressions and yield several
- results. The last one targets all of bundles, modules, authors, and
- distros simultaneously. When more than one result is available, they
- are printed in one-line format.
-
- "get", "make", "test", "install", "clean" modules or distributions
- These commands take any number of arguments and investigate what is
- necessary to perform the action. If the argument is a distribution
- file name (recognized by embedded slashes), it is processed. If it is
- a module, CPAN determines the distribution file in which this module
- is included and processes that, following any dependencies named in
- the module's META.yml or Makefile.PL (this behavior is controlled by
- the configuration parameter "prerequisites_policy".)
-
- "get" downloads a distribution file and untars or unzips it, "make"
- builds it, "test" runs the test suite, and "install" installs it.
-
- Any "make" or "test" is run unconditionally. An
-
- install <distribution_file>
-
- is also run unconditionally. But for
-
- install <module>
-
- CPAN checks whether an install is needed and prints *module up to
- date* if the distribution file containing the module doesn't need
- updating.
-
- CPAN also keeps track of what it has done within the current session
- and doesn't try to build a package a second time regardless of whether
- it succeeded or not. It does not repeat a test run if the test has
- been run successfully before. Same for install runs.
-
- The "force" pragma may precede another command (currently: "get",
- "make", "test", or "install") to execute the command from scratch and
- attempt to continue past certain errors. See the section below on the
- "force" and the "fforce" pragma.
-
- The "notest" pragma skips the test part in the build process.
-
- Example:
-
- cpan> notest install Tk
-
- A "clean" command results in a
-
- make clean
-
- being executed within the distribution file's working directory.
-
- "readme", "perldoc", "look" module or distribution
- "readme" displays the README file of the associated distribution.
- "Look" gets and untars (if not yet done) the distribution file,
- changes to the appropriate directory and opens a subshell process in
- that directory. "perldoc" displays the module's pod documentation in
- html or plain text format.
-
- "ls" author
- "ls" globbing_expression
- The first form lists all distribution files in and below an author's
- CPAN directory as stored in the CHECKUMS files distributed on CPAN.
- The listing recurses into subdirectories.
-
- The second form limits or expands the output with shell globbing as in
- the following examples:
-
- ls JV/make*
- ls GSAR/*make*
- ls */*make*
-
- The last example is very slow and outputs extra progress indicators
- that break the alignment of the result.
-
- Note that globbing only lists directories explicitly asked for, for
- example FOO/* will not list FOO/bar/Acme-Sthg-n.nn.tar.gz. This may be
- regarded as a bug that may be changed in some future version.
-
- "failed"
- The "failed" command reports all distributions that failed on one of
- "make", "test" or "install" for some reason in the currently running
- shell session.
-
- Persistence between sessions
- If the "YAML" or the "YAML::Syck" module is installed a record of the
- internal state of all modules is written to disk after each step. The
- files contain a signature of the currently running perl version for
- later perusal.
-
- If the configurations variable "build_dir_reuse" is set to a true
- value, then CPAN.pm reads the collected YAML files. If the stored
- signature matches the currently running perl, the stored state is
- loaded into memory such that persistence between sessions is
- effectively established.
-
- The "force" and the "fforce" pragma
- To speed things up in complex installation scenarios, CPAN.pm keeps
- track of what it has already done and refuses to do some things a
- second time. A "get", a "make", and an "install" are not repeated. A
- "test" is repeated only if the previous test was unsuccessful. The
- diagnostic message when CPAN.pm refuses to do something a second time
- is one of *Has already been *"unwrapped|made|tested successfully" or
- something similar. Another situation where CPAN refuses to act is an
- "install" if the corresponding "test" was not successful.
-
- In all these cases, the user can override this stubborn behaviour by
- prepending the command with the word force, for example:
-
- cpan> force get Foo
- cpan> force make AUTHOR/Bar-3.14.tar.gz
- cpan> force test Baz
- cpan> force install Acme::Meta
-
- Each *forced* command is executed with the corresponding part of its
- memory erased.
-
- The "fforce" pragma is a variant that emulates a "force get" which
- erases the entire memory followed by the action specified, effectively
- restarting the whole get/make/test/install procedure from scratch.
-
- Lockfile
- Interactive sessions maintain a lockfile, by default "~/.cpan/.lock".
- Batch jobs can run without a lockfile and not disturb each other.
-
- The shell offers to run in *downgraded mode* when another process is
- holding the lockfile. This is an experimental feature that is not yet
- tested very well. This second shell then does not write the history
- file, does not use the metadata file, and has a different prompt.
-
- Signals
- CPAN.pm installs signal handlers for SIGINT and SIGTERM. While you are
- in the cpan-shell, it is intended that you can press "^C" anytime and
- return to the cpan-shell prompt. A SIGTERM will cause the cpan-shell
- to clean up and leave the shell loop. You can emulate the effect of a
- SIGTERM by sending two consecutive SIGINTs, which usually means by
- pressing "^C" twice.
-
- CPAN.pm ignores SIGPIPE. If the user sets "inactivity_timeout", a
- SIGALRM is used during the run of the "perl Makefile.PL" or "perl
- Build.PL" subprocess.
-
- CPAN::Shell
- The commands available in the shell interface are methods in the package
- CPAN::Shell. If you enter the shell command, your input is split by the
- Text::ParseWords::shellwords() routine, which acts like most shells do.
- The first word is interpreted as the method to be invoked, and the rest
- of the words are treated as the method's arguments. Continuation lines
- are supported by ending a line with a literal backslash.
-
- autobundle
- "autobundle" writes a bundle file into the
- "$CPAN::Config->{cpan_home}/Bundle" directory. The file contains a list
- of all modules that are both available from CPAN and currently installed
- within @INC. The name of the bundle file is based on the current date
- and a counter.
-
- hosts
- Note: this feature is still in alpha state and may change in future
- versions of CPAN.pm
-
- This commands provides a statistical overview over recent download
- activities. The data for this is collected in the YAML file
- "FTPstats.yml" in your "cpan_home" directory. If no YAML module is
- configured or YAML not installed, no stats are provided.
-
- mkmyconfig
- mkmyconfig() writes your own CPAN::MyConfig file into your "~/.cpan/"
- directory so that you can save your own preferences instead of the
- system-wide ones.
-
- recent ***EXPERIMENTAL COMMAND***
- The "recent" command downloads a list of recent uploads to CPAN and
- displays them *slowly*. While the command is running, a $SIG{INT} exits
- the loop after displaying the current item.
-
- Note: This command requires XML::LibXML installed.
-
- Note: This whole command currently is just a hack and will probably
- change in future versions of CPAN.pm, but the general approach will
- likely remain.
-
- Note: See also smoke
-
- recompile
- recompile() is a special command that takes no argument and runs the
- make/test/install cycle with brute force over all installed dynamically
- loadable extensions (aka XS modules) with 'force' in effect. The primary
- purpose of this command is to finish a network installation. Imagine you
- have a common source tree for two different architectures. You decide to
- do a completely independent fresh installation. You start on one
- architecture with the help of a Bundle file produced earlier. CPAN
- installs the whole Bundle for you, but when you try to repeat the job on
- the second architecture, CPAN responds with a "Foo up to date" message
- for all modules. So you invoke CPAN's recompile on the second
- architecture and you're done.
-
- Another popular use for "recompile" is to act as a rescue in case your
- perl breaks binary compatibility. If one of the modules that CPAN uses
- is in turn depending on binary compatibility (so you cannot run CPAN
- commands), then you should try the CPAN::Nox module for recovery.
-
- report Bundle|Distribution|Module
- The "report" command temporarily turns on the "test_report" config
- variable, then runs the "force test" command with the given arguments.
- The "force" pragma reruns the tests and repeats every step that might
- have failed before.
-
- smoke ***EXPERIMENTAL COMMAND***
- *** WARNING: this command downloads and executes software from CPAN to
- your computer of completely unknown status. You should never do this
- with your normal account and better have a dedicated well separated and
- secured machine to do this. ***
-
- The "smoke" command takes the list of recent uploads to CPAN as provided
- by the "recent" command and tests them all. While the command is running
- $SIG{INT} is defined to mean that the current item shall be skipped.
-
- Note: This whole command currently is just a hack and will probably
- change in future versions of CPAN.pm, but the general approach will
- likely remain.
-
- Note: See also recent
-
- upgrade [Module|/Regex/]...
- The "upgrade" command first runs an "r" command with the given arguments
- and then installs the newest versions of all modules that were listed by
- that.
-
- The four "CPAN::*" Classes: Author, Bundle, Module, Distribution
- Although it may be considered internal, the class hierarchy does matter
- for both users and programmer. CPAN.pm deals with the four classes
- mentioned above, and those classes all share a set of methods. Classical
- single polymorphism is in effect. A metaclass object registers all
- objects of all kinds and indexes them with a string. The strings
- referencing objects have a separated namespace (well, not completely
- separated):
-
- Namespace Class
-
- words containing a "/" (slash) Distribution
- words starting with Bundle:: Bundle
- everything else Module or Author
-
- Modules know their associated Distribution objects. They always refer to
- the most recent official release. Developers may mark their releases as
- unstable development versions (by inserting an underbar into the module
- version number which will also be reflected in the distribution name
- when you run 'make dist'), so the really hottest and newest distribution
- is not always the default. If a module Foo circulates on CPAN in both
- version 1.23 and 1.23_90, CPAN.pm offers a convenient way to install
- version 1.23 by saying
-
- install Foo
-
- This would install the complete distribution file (say
- BAR/Foo-1.23.tar.gz) with all accompanying material. But if you would
- like to install version 1.23_90, you need to know where the distribution
- file resides on CPAN relative to the authors/id/ directory. If the
- author is BAR, this might be BAR/Foo-1.23_90.tar.gz; so you would have
- to say
-
- install BAR/Foo-1.23_90.tar.gz
-
- The first example will be driven by an object of the class CPAN::Module,
- the second by an object of class CPAN::Distribution.
-
- Integrating local directories
- Note: this feature is still in alpha state and may change in future
- versions of CPAN.pm
-
- Distribution objects are normally distributions from the CPAN, but there
- is a slightly degenerate case for Distribution objects, too, of projects
- held on the local disk. These distribution objects have the same name as
- the local directory and end with a dot. A dot by itself is also allowed
- for the current directory at the time CPAN.pm was used. All actions such
- as "make", "test", and "install" are applied directly to that directory.
- This gives the command "cpan ." an interesting touch: while the normal
- mantra of installing a CPAN module without CPAN.pm is one of
-
- perl Makefile.PL perl Build.PL
- ( go and get prerequisites )
- make ./Build
- make test ./Build test
- make install ./Build install
-
- the command "cpan ." does all of this at once. It figures out which of
- the two mantras is appropriate, fetches and installs all prerequisites,
- takes care of them recursively, and finally finishes the installation of
- the module in the current directory, be it a CPAN module or not.
-
- The typical usage case is for private modules or working copies of
- projects from remote repositories on the local disk.
-
- Redirection
- The usual shell redirection symbols " | " and ">" are recognized by the
- cpan shell only when surrounded by whitespace. So piping to pager or
- redirecting output into a file works somewhat as in a normal shell, with
- the stipulation that you must type extra spaces.
-
-CONFIGURATION
- When the CPAN module is used for the first time, a configuration
- dialogue tries to determine a couple of site specific options. The
- result of the dialog is stored in a hash reference $CPAN::Config in a
- file CPAN/Config.pm.
-
- Default values defined in the CPAN/Config.pm file can be overridden in a
- user specific file: CPAN/MyConfig.pm. Such a file is best placed in
- "$HOME/.cpan/CPAN/MyConfig.pm", because "$HOME/.cpan" is added to the
- search path of the CPAN module before the use() or require() statements.
- The mkmyconfig command writes this file for you.
-
- The "o conf" command has various bells and whistles:
-
- completion support
- If you have a ReadLine module installed, you can hit TAB at any
- point of the commandline and "o conf" will offer you completion for
- the built-in subcommands and/or config variable names.
-
- displaying some help: o conf help
- Displays a short help
-
- displaying current values: o conf [KEY]
- Displays the current value(s) for this config variable. Without KEY,
- displays all subcommands and config variables.
-
- Example:
-
- o conf shell
-
- If KEY starts and ends with a slash, the string in between is
- treated as a regular expression and only keys matching this regex
- are displayed
-
- Example:
-
- o conf /color/
-
- changing of scalar values: o conf KEY VALUE
- Sets the config variable KEY to VALUE. The empty string can be
- specified as usual in shells, with '' or ""
-
- Example:
-
- o conf wget /usr/bin/wget
-
- changing of list values: o conf KEY SHIFT|UNSHIFT|PUSH|POP|SPLICE|LIST
- If a config variable name ends with "list", it is a list. "o conf
- KEY shift" removes the first element of the list, "o conf KEY pop"
- removes the last element of the list. "o conf KEYS unshift LIST"
- prepends a list of values to the list, "o conf KEYS push LIST"
- appends a list of valued to the list.
-
- Likewise, "o conf KEY splice LIST" passes the LIST to the
- corresponding splice command.
-
- Finally, any other list of arguments is taken as a new list value
- for the KEY variable discarding the previous value.
-
- Examples:
-
- o conf urllist unshift http://cpan.dev.local/CPAN
- o conf urllist splice 3 1
- o conf urllist http://cpan1.local http://cpan2.local ftp://ftp.perl.org
-
- reverting to saved: o conf defaults
- Reverts all config variables to the state in the saved config file.
-
- saving the config: o conf commit
- Saves all config variables to the current config file
- (CPAN/Config.pm or CPAN/MyConfig.pm that was loaded at start).
-
- The configuration dialog can be started any time later again by issuing
- the command " o conf init " in the CPAN shell. A subset of the
- configuration dialog can be run by issuing "o conf init WORD" where WORD
- is any valid config variable or a regular expression.
-

-
- You can set and query each of these options interactively in the cpan
- shell with the "o conf" or the "o conf init" command as specified below.
-
- "o conf <scalar option>"
- prints the current value of the *scalar option*
-
- "o conf <scalar option> <value>"
- Sets the value of the *scalar option* to *value*
-
- "o conf <list option>"
- prints the current value of the *list option* in MakeMaker's neatvalue
- format.
-
- "o conf <list option> [shift|pop]"
- shifts or pops the array in the *list option* variable
-
- "o conf <list option> [unshift|push|splice] <list>"
- works like the corresponding perl commands.
-
- interactive editing: o conf init [MATCH|LIST]
- Runs an interactive configuration dialog for matching variables.
- Without argument runs the dialog over all supported config variables.
- To specify a MATCH the argument must be enclosed by slashes.
-
- Examples:
-
- o conf init ftp_passive ftp_proxy
- o conf init /color/
-
- Note: this method of setting config variables often provides more
- explanation about the functioning of a variable than the manpage.
-
- CPAN::anycwd($path): Note on config variable getcwd
- CPAN.pm changes the current working directory often and needs to
- determine its own current working directory. By default it uses
- Cwd::cwd, but if for some reason this doesn't work on your system,
- configure alternatives according to the following table:
-
- cwd Calls Cwd::cwd
-
- getcwd
- Calls Cwd::getcwd
-
- fastcwd
- Calls Cwd::fastcwd
-
- backtickcwd
- Calls the external command cwd.
-
- Note on the format of the urllist parameter
- urllist parameters are URLs according to RFC 1738. We do a little
- guessing if your URL is not compliant, but if you have problems with
- "file" URLs, please try the correct format. Either:
-
- file://localhost/whatever/ftp/pub/CPAN/
-
- or
-
- file:///home/ftp/pub/CPAN/
-
- The urllist parameter has CD-ROM support
- The "urllist" parameter of the configuration table contains a list of
- URLs used for downloading. If the list contains any "file" URLs, CPAN
- always tries there first. This feature is disabled for index files. So
- the recommendation for the owner of a CD-ROM with CPAN contents is:
- include your local, possibly outdated CD-ROM as a "file" URL at the end
- of urllist, e.g.
-
- o conf urllist push file://localhost/CDROM/CPAN
-
- CPAN.pm will then fetch the index files from one of the CPAN sites that
- come at the beginning of urllist. It will later check for each module to
- see whether there is a local copy of the most recent version.
-
- Another peculiarity of urllist is that the site that we could
- successfully fetch the last file from automatically gets a preference
- token and is tried as the first site for the next request. So if you add
- a new site at runtime it may happen that the previously preferred site
- will be tried another time. This means that if you want to disallow a
- site for the next transfer, it must be explicitly removed from urllist.
-
- Maintaining the urllist parameter
- If you have YAML.pm (or some other YAML module configured in
- "yaml_module") installed, CPAN.pm collects a few statistical data about
- recent downloads. You can view the statistics with the "hosts" command
- or inspect them directly by looking into the "FTPstats.yml" file in your
- "cpan_home" directory.
-
- To get some interesting statistics, it is recommended that
- "randomize_urllist" be set; this introduces some amount of randomness
- into the URL selection.
-
- The "requires" and "build_requires" dependency declarations
- Since CPAN.pm version 1.88_51 modules declared as "build_requires" by a
- distribution are treated differently depending on the config variable
- "build_requires_install_policy". By setting
- "build_requires_install_policy" to "no", such a module is not installed.
- It is only built and tested, and then kept in the list of tested but
- uninstalled modules. As such, it is available during the build of the
- dependent module by integrating the path to the "blib/arch" and
- "blib/lib" directories in the environment variable PERL5LIB. If
- "build_requires_install_policy" is set ti "yes", then both modules
- declared as "requires" and those declared as "build_requires" are
- treated alike. By setting to "ask/yes" or "ask/no", CPAN.pm asks the
- user and sets the default accordingly.
-
- Configuration for individual distributions (*Distroprefs*)
- (Note: This feature has been introduced in CPAN.pm 1.8854 and is still
- considered beta quality)
-
- Distributions on CPAN usually behave according to what we call the CPAN
- mantra. Or since the advent of Module::Build we should talk about two
- mantras:
-
- perl Makefile.PL perl Build.PL
- make ./Build
- make test ./Build test
- make install ./Build install
-
- But some modules cannot be built with this mantra. They try to get some
- extra data from the user via the environment, extra arguments, or
- interactively--thus disturbing the installation of large bundles like
- Phalanx100 or modules with many dependencies like Plagger.
-
- The distroprefs system of "CPAN.pm" addresses this problem by allowing
- the user to specify extra informations and recipes in YAML files to
- either
-
- * pass additional arguments to one of the four commands,
-
- * set environment variables
-
- * instantiate an Expect object that reads from the console, waits for
- some regular expressions and enters some answers
-
- * temporarily override assorted "CPAN.pm" configuration variables
-
- * specify dependencies the original maintainer forgot
-
- * disable the installation of an object altogether
-
- See the YAML and Data::Dumper files that come with the "CPAN.pm"
- distribution in the "distroprefs/" directory for examples.
-
- Filenames
- The YAML files themselves must have the ".yml" extension; all other
- files are ignored (for two exceptions see *Fallback Data::Dumper and
- Storable* below). The containing directory can be specified in "CPAN.pm"
- in the "prefs_dir" config variable. Try "o conf init prefs_dir" in the
- CPAN shell to set and activate the distroprefs system.
-
- Every YAML file may contain arbitrary documents according to the YAML
- specification, and every document is treated as an entity that can
- specify the treatment of a single distribution.
-
- Filenames can be picked arbitrarily; "CPAN.pm" always reads all files
- (in alphabetical order) and takes the key "match" (see below in
- *Language Specs*) as a hashref containing match criteria that determine
- if the current distribution matches the YAML document or not.
-
- Fallback Data::Dumper and Storable
- If neither your configured "yaml_module" nor YAML.pm is installed,
- CPAN.pm falls back to using Data::Dumper and Storable and looks for
- files with the extensions ".dd" or ".st" in the "prefs_dir" directory.
- These files are expected to contain one or more hashrefs. For
- Data::Dumper generated files, this is expected to be done with by
- defining $VAR1, $VAR2, etc. The YAML shell would produce these with the
- command
-
- ysh < somefile.yml > somefile.dd
-
- For Storable files the rule is that they must be constructed such that
- "Storable::retrieve(file)" returns an array reference and the array
- elements represent one distropref object each. The conversion from YAML
- would look like so:
-
- perl -MYAML=LoadFile -MStorable=nstore -e '
- @y=LoadFile(shift);
- nstore(\@y, shift)' somefile.yml somefile.st
-
- In bootstrapping situations it is usually sufficient to translate only a
- few YAML files to Data::Dumper for crucial modules like "YAML::Syck",
- "YAML.pm" and "Expect.pm". If you prefer Storable over Data::Dumper,
- remember to pull out a Storable version that writes an older format than
- all the other Storable versions that will need to read them.
-
- Blueprint
- The following example contains all supported keywords and structures
- with the exception of "eexpect" which can be used instead of "expect".

-
- Language Specs
- Every YAML document represents a single hash reference. The valid keys
- in this hash are as follows:
-
- comment [scalar]
- A comment
-
- cpanconfig [hash]
- Temporarily override assorted "CPAN.pm" configuration variables.
-
- Supported are: "build_requires_install_policy", "check_sigs",
- "make", "make_install_make_command", "prefer_installer",
- "test_report". Please report as a bug when you need another one
- supported.
-
- depends [hash] *** EXPERIMENTAL FEATURE ***
- All three types, namely "configure_requires", "build_requires", and
- "requires" are supported in the way specified in the META.yml
- specification. The current implementation *merges* the specified
- dependencies with those declared by the package maintainer. In a
- future implementation this may be changed to override the original
- declaration.
-
- disabled [boolean]
- Specifies that this distribution shall not be processed at all.
-
- features [array] *** EXPERIMENTAL FEATURE ***
- Experimental implementation to deal with optional_features from
- META.yml. Still needs coordination with installer software and
- currently works only for META.yml declaring "dynamic_config=0". Use
- with caution.
-
- goto [string]
- The canonical name of a delegate distribution to install instead.
- Useful when a new version, although it tests OK itself, breaks
- something else or a developer release or a fork is already uploaded
- that is better than the last released version.
-
- install [hash]
- Processing instructions for the "make install" or "./Build install"
- phase of the CPAN mantra. See below under *Processing Instructions*.
-
- make [hash]
- Processing instructions for the "make" or "./Build" phase of the
- CPAN mantra. See below under *Processing Instructions*.
-
- match [hash]
- A hashref with one or more of the keys "distribution", "modules",
- "perl", "perlconfig", and "env" that specify whether a document is
- targeted at a specific CPAN distribution or installation. Keys
- prefixed with "not_" negates the corresponding match.
-
- The corresponding values are interpreted as regular expressions. The
- "distribution" related one will be matched against the canonical
- distribution name, e.g. "AUTHOR/Foo-Bar-3.14.tar.gz".
-
- The "module" related one will be matched against *all* modules
- contained in the distribution until one module matches.
-
- The "perl" related one will be matched against $^X (but with the
- absolute path).
-
- The value associated with "perlconfig" is itself a hashref that is
- matched against corresponding values in the %Config::Config hash
- living in the "Config.pm" module. Keys prefixed with "not_" negates
- the corresponding match.
-
- The value associated with "env" is itself a hashref that is matched
- against corresponding values in the %ENV hash. Keys prefixed with
- "not_" negates the corresponding match.
-
- If more than one restriction of "module", "distribution", etc. is
- specified, the results of the separately computed match values must
- all match. If so, the hashref represented by the YAML document is
- returned as the preference structure for the current distribution.
-
- patches [array]
- An array of patches on CPAN or on the local disk to be applied in
- order via an external patch program. If the value for the "-p"
- parameter is 0 or 1 is determined by reading the patch beforehand.
- The path to each patch is either an absolute path on the local
- filesystem or relative to a patch directory specified in the
- "patches_dir" configuration variable or in the format of a canonical
- distroname. For examples please consult the distroprefs/ directory
- in the CPAN.pm distribution (these examples are not installed by
- default).
-
- Note: if the "applypatch" program is installed and "CPAN::Config"
- knows about it and a patch is written by the "makepatch" program,
- then "CPAN.pm" lets "applypatch" apply the patch. Both "makepatch"
- and "applypatch" are available from CPAN in the "JV/makepatch-*"
- distribution.
-
- pl [hash]
- Processing instructions for the "perl Makefile.PL" or "perl
- Build.PL" phase of the CPAN mantra. See below under *Processing
- Instructions*.
-
- test [hash]
- Processing instructions for the "make test" or "./Build test" phase
- of the CPAN mantra. See below under *Processing Instructions*.
-
- Processing Instructions
- args [array]
- Arguments to be added to the command line
-
- commandline
- A full commandline to run via "system()". During execution, the
- environment variable PERL is set to $^X (but with an absolute path).
- If "commandline" is specified, "args" is not used.
-
- eexpect [hash]
- Extended "expect". This is a hash reference with four allowed keys,
- "mode", "timeout", "reuse", and "talk".
-
- "mode" may have the values "deterministic" for the case where all
- questions come in the order written down and "anyorder" for the case
- where the questions may come in any order. The default mode is
- "deterministic".
-
- "timeout" denotes a timeout in seconds. Floating-point timeouts are
- OK. With "mode=deterministic", the timeout denotes the timeout per
- question; with "mode=anyorder" it denotes the timeout per byte
- received from the stream or questions.
-
- "talk" is a reference to an array that contains alternating
- questions and answers. Questions are regular expressions and answers
- are literal strings. The Expect module watches the stream from the
- execution of the external program ("perl Makefile.PL", "perl
- Build.PL", "make", etc.).
-
- For "mode=deterministic", the CPAN.pm injects the corresponding
- answer as soon as the stream matches the regular expression.
-
- For "mode=anyorder" CPAN.pm answers a question as soon as the
- timeout is reached for the next byte in the input stream. In this
- mode you can use the "reuse" parameter to decide what will happen
- with a question-answer pair after it has been used. In the default
- case (reuse=0) it is removed from the array, avoiding being used
- again accidentally. If you want to answer the question "Do you
- really want to do that" several times, then it must be included in
- the array at least as often as you want this answer to be given.
- Setting the parameter "reuse" to 1 makes this repetition
- unnecessary.
-
- env [hash]
- Environment variables to be set during the command
-
- expect [array]
- "expect: <array>" is a short notation for
-
- eexpect: mode: deterministic timeout: 15 talk: <array>
-
- Schema verification with "Kwalify"
- If you have the "Kwalify" module installed (which is part of the
- Bundle::CPANxxl), then all your distroprefs files are checked for
- syntactic correctness.
-
- Example Distroprefs Files
- "CPAN.pm" comes with a collection of example YAML files. Note that these
- are really just examples and should not be used without care because
- they cannot fit everybody's purpose. After all, the authors of the
- packages that ask questions had a need to ask, so you should watch their
- questions and adjust the examples to your environment and your needs.
- You have been warned:-)
-
-PROGRAMMER'S INTERFACE
- If you do not enter the shell, shell commands are available both as
- methods ("CPAN::Shell->install(...)") and as functions in the calling
- package ("install(...)"). Before calling low-level commands, it makes
- sense to initialize components of CPAN you need, e.g.:
-
- CPAN::HandleConfig->load;
- CPAN::Shell::setup_output;
- CPAN::Index->reload;
-
- High-level commands do such initializations automatically.
-
- There's currently only one class that has a stable interface -
- CPAN::Shell. All commands that are available in the CPAN shell are
- methods of the class CPAN::Shell. Each of the commands that produce
- listings of modules ("r", "autobundle", "u") also return a list of the
- IDs of all modules within the list.
-
- expand($type,@things)
- The IDs of all objects available within a program are strings that can
- be expanded to the corresponding real objects with the
- "CPAN::Shell->expand("Module",@things)" method. Expand returns a list
- of CPAN::Module objects according to the @things arguments given. In
- scalar context, it returns only the first element of the list.
-
- expandany(@things)
- Like expand, but returns objects of the appropriate type, i.e.
- CPAN::Bundle objects for bundles, CPAN::Module objects for modules,
- and CPAN::Distribution objects for distributions. Note: it does not
- expand to CPAN::Author objects.
-
- Programming Examples
- This enables the programmer to do operations that combine
- functionalities that are available in the shell.
-
- # install everything that is outdated on my disk:
- perl -MCPAN -e 'CPAN::Shell->install(CPAN::Shell->r)'
-
- # install my favorite programs if necessary:
- for $mod (qw(Net::FTP Digest::SHA Data::Dumper)) {
- CPAN::Shell->install($mod);
- }
-
- # list all modules on my disk that have no VERSION number
- for $mod (CPAN::Shell->expand("Module","/./")) {
- next unless $mod->inst_file;
- # MakeMaker convention for undefined $VERSION:
- next unless $mod->inst_version eq "undef";
- print "No VERSION in ", $mod->id, "\n";
- }
-
- # find out which distribution on CPAN contains a module:
- print CPAN::Shell->expand("Module","Apache::Constants")->cpan_file
-
- Or if you want to schedule a *cron* job to watch CPAN, you could list
- all modules that need updating. First a quick and dirty way:
-
- perl -e 'use CPAN; CPAN::Shell->r;'
-
- If you don't want any output should all modules be up to date, parse
- the output of above command for the regular expression "/modules are
- up to date/" and decide to mail the output only if it doesn't match.
-
- If you prefer to do it more in a programmerish style in one single
- process, something like this may better suit you:
-
- # list all modules on my disk that have newer versions on CPAN
- for $mod (CPAN::Shell->expand("Module","/./")) {
- next unless $mod->inst_file;
- next if $mod->uptodate;
- printf "Module %s is installed as %s, could be updated to %s from CPAN\n",
- $mod->id, $mod->inst_version, $mod->cpan_version;
- }
-
- If that gives too much output every day, you may want to watch only
- for three modules. You can write
-
- for $mod (CPAN::Shell->expand("Module","/Apache|LWP|CGI/")) {
-
- as the first line instead. Or you can combine some of the above
- tricks:
-
- # watch only for a new mod_perl module
- $mod = CPAN::Shell->expand("Module","mod_perl");
- exit if $mod->uptodate;
- # new mod_perl arrived, let me know all update recommendations
- CPAN::Shell->r;
-

- objects may be bundles, modules or distributions.
-
- CPAN::Bundle::force($method,@args)
- Forces CPAN to perform a task that it normally would have refused to
- do. Force takes as arguments a method name to be called and any
- number of additional arguments that should be passed to the called
- method. The internals of the object get the needed changes so that
- CPAN.pm does not refuse to take the action. The "force" is passed
- recursively to all contained objects. See also the section above on
- the "force" and the "fforce" pragma.
-
- CPAN::Bundle::get()
- Recursively runs the "get" method on all items contained in the
- bundle
-
- CPAN::Bundle::inst_file()

- or "$CPAN::Config-"{cpan_home}>. Note that this is different from
- CPAN::Module::inst_file.
-
- CPAN::Bundle::inst_version()
- Like CPAN::Bundle::inst_file, but returns the $VERSION
-
- CPAN::Bundle::uptodate()
- Returns 1 if the bundle itself and all its members are uptodate.

- the author's PAUSE ID and TARBALL is the distribution filename.
-
- CPAN::Distribution::base_id()
- Returns the distribution filename without any archive suffix. E.g
- "Foo-Bar-0.01"
-
- CPAN::Distribution::clean()
- Changes to the directory where the distribution has been unpacked
- and runs "make clean" there.
-
- CPAN::Distribution::containsmods()
- Returns a list of IDs of modules contained in a distribution file.
- Works only for distributions listed in the 02packages.details.txt.gz
- file. This typically means that just most recent version of a
- distribution is covered.
-
- CPAN::Distribution::cvs_import()
- Changes to the directory where the distribution has been unpacked
- and runs something like
-
- cvs -d $cvs_root import -m $cvs_log $cvs_dir $userid v$version
-
- there.
-
- CPAN::Distribution::dir()
- Returns the directory into which this distribution has been
- unpacked.
-
- CPAN::Distribution::force($method,@args)
- Forces CPAN to perform a task that it normally would have refused to
- do. Force takes as arguments a method name to be called and any
- number of additional arguments that should be passed to the called
- method. The internals of the object get the needed changes so that
- CPAN.pm does not refuse to take the action. See also the section
- above on the "force" and the "fforce" pragma.
-
- CPAN::Distribution::get()
- Downloads the distribution from CPAN and unpacks it. Does nothing if
- the distribution has already been downloaded and unpacked within the
- current session.
-
- CPAN::Distribution::install()
- Changes to the directory where the distribution has been unpacked
- and runs the external command "make install" there. If "make" has
- not yet been run, it will be run first. A "make test" is issued in
- any case and if this fails, the install is cancelled. The
- cancellation can be avoided by letting "force" run the "install" for
- you.
-
- This install method only has the power to install the distribution
- if there are no dependencies in the way. To install an object along
- with all its dependencies, use CPAN::Shell->install.
-
- Note that install() gives no meaningful return value. See
- uptodate().
-
- CPAN::Distribution::install_tested()
- Install all distributions that have tested sucessfully but not yet
- installed. See also "is_tested".
-
- CPAN::Distribution::isa_perl()
- Returns 1 if this distribution file seems to be a perl distribution.
- Normally this is derived from the file name only, but the index from
- CPAN can contain a hint to achieve a return value of true for other
- filenames too.
-
- CPAN::Distribution::look()
- Changes to the directory where the distribution has been unpacked
- and opens a subshell there. Exiting the subshell returns.
-
- CPAN::Distribution::make()
- First runs the "get" method to make sure the distribution is
- downloaded and unpacked. Changes to the directory where the
- distribution has been unpacked and runs the external commands "perl
- Makefile.PL" or "perl Build.PL" and "make" there.
-
- CPAN::Distribution::perldoc()
- Downloads the pod documentation of the file associated with a
- distribution (in HTML format) and runs it through the external
- command *lynx* specified in "$CPAN::Config-"{lynx}>. If *lynx* isn't
- available, it converts it to plain text with the external command
- *html2text* and runs it through the pager specified in
- "$CPAN::Config-"{pager}>
-
- CPAN::Distribution::prefs()
- Returns the hash reference from the first matching YAML file that
- the user has deposited in the "prefs_dir/" directory. The first
- succeeding match wins. The files in the "prefs_dir/" are processed
- alphabetically, and the canonical distroname (e.g.
- AUTHOR/Foo-Bar-3.14.tar.gz) is matched against the regular
- expressions stored in the $root->{match}{distribution} attribute
- value. Additionally all module names contained in a distribution are
- matched against the regular expressions in the
- $root->{match}{module} attribute value. The two match values are
- ANDed together. Each of the two attributes are optional.
-
- CPAN::Distribution::prereq_pm()
- Returns the hash reference that has been announced by a distribution
- as the "requires" and "build_requires" elements. These can be
- declared either by the "META.yml" (if authoritative) or can be
- deposited after the run of "Build.PL" in the file "./_build/prereqs"
- or after the run of "Makfile.PL" written as the "PREREQ_PM" hash in
- a comment in the produced "Makefile". *Note*: this method only works
- after an attempt has been made to "make" the distribution. Returns
- undef otherwise.
-
- CPAN::Distribution::readme()
- Downloads the README file associated with a distribution and runs it
- through the pager specified in "$CPAN::Config-"{pager}>.
-
- CPAN::Distribution::reports()
- Downloads report data for this distribution from www.cpantesters.org
- and displays a subset of them.
-
- CPAN::Distribution::read_yaml()
- Returns the content of the META.yml of this distro as a hashref.
- Note: works only after an attempt has been made to "make" the
- distribution. Returns undef otherwise. Also returns undef if the
- content of META.yml is not authoritative. (The rules about what
- exactly makes the content authoritative are still in flux.)
-
- CPAN::Distribution::test()
- Changes to the directory where the distribution has been unpacked
- and runs "make test" there.
-
- CPAN::Distribution::uptodate()
- Returns 1 if all the modules contained in the distribution are
- uptodate. Relies on containsmods.
-
- CPAN::Index::force_reload()
- Forces a reload of all indices.
-
- CPAN::Index::reload()
- Reloads all indices if they have not been read for more than
- "$CPAN::Config-"{index_expire}> days.
-
- CPAN::InfoObj::dump()
- CPAN::Author, CPAN::Bundle, CPAN::Module, and CPAN::Distribution
- inherit this method. It prints the data structure associated with an
- object. Useful for debugging. Note: the data structure is considered
- internal and thus subject to change without notice.
-
- CPAN::Module::as_glimpse()
- Returns a one-line description of the module in four columns: The
- first column contains the word "Module", the second column consists
- of one character: an equals sign if this module is already installed
- and uptodate, a less-than sign if this module is installed but can
- be upgraded, and a space if the module is not installed. The third
- column is the name of the module and the fourth column gives
- maintainer or distribution information.
-
- CPAN::Module::as_string()
- Returns a multi-line description of the module
-
- CPAN::Module::clean()
- Runs a clean on the distribution associated with this module.
-
- CPAN::Module::cpan_file()
- Returns the filename on CPAN that is associated with the module.
-
- CPAN::Module::cpan_version()
- Returns the latest version of this module available on CPAN.
-
- CPAN::Module::cvs_import()
- Runs a cvs_import on the distribution associated with this module.
-
- CPAN::Module::description()
- Returns a 44 character description of this module. Only available
- for modules listed in The Module List
- (CPAN/modules/00modlist.long.html or 00modlist.long.txt.gz)
-
- CPAN::Module::distribution()
- Returns the CPAN::Distribution object that contains the current
- version of this module.
-
- CPAN::Module::dslip_status()
- Returns a hash reference. The keys of the hash are the letters "D",
- "S", "L", "I", and <P>, for development status, support level,
- language, interface and public licence respectively. The data for
- the DSLIP status are collected by pause.perl.org when authors

-
- CPAN::Module::force($method,@args)
- Forces CPAN to perform a task it would normally refuse to do. Force
- takes as arguments a method name to be invoked and any number of
- additional arguments to pass that method. The internals of the
- object get the needed changes so that CPAN.pm does not refuse to
- take the action. See also the section above on the "force" and the
- "fforce" pragma.
-
- CPAN::Module::get()
- Runs a get on the distribution associated with this module.
-
- CPAN::Module::inst_file()
- Returns the filename of the module found in @INC. The first file
- found is reported, just as perl itself stops searching @INC once it
- finds a module.
-
- CPAN::Module::available_file()
- Returns the filename of the module found in PERL5LIB or @INC. The
- first file found is reported. The advantage of this method over
- "inst_file" is that modules that have been tested but not yet
- installed are included because PERL5LIB keeps track of tested
- modules.
-
- CPAN::Module::inst_version()
- Returns the version number of the installed module in readable
- format.
-
- CPAN::Module::available_version()
- Returns the version number of the available module in readable
- format.
-
- CPAN::Module::install()
- Runs an "install" on the distribution associated with this module.
-
- CPAN::Module::look()
- Changes to the directory where the distribution associated with this
- module has been unpacked and opens a subshell there. Exiting the
- subshell returns.
-
- CPAN::Module::make()
- Runs a "make" on the distribution associated with this module.
-
- CPAN::Module::manpage_headline()
- If module is installed, peeks into the module's manpage, reads the
- headline, and returns it. Moreover, if the module has been
- downloaded within this session, does the equivalent on the
- downloaded module even if it hasn't been installed yet.
-
- CPAN::Module::perldoc()
- Runs a "perldoc" on this module.
-
- CPAN::Module::readme()
- Runs a "readme" on the distribution associated with this module.
-
- CPAN::Module::reports()
- Calls the reports() method on the associated distribution object.
-
- CPAN::Module::test()
- Runs a "test" on the distribution associated with this module.
-
- CPAN::Module::uptodate()
- Returns 1 if the module is installed and up-to-date.
-
- CPAN::Module::userid()
- Returns the author's ID of the module.
-
- Cache Manager
- Currently the cache manager only keeps track of the build directory
- ($CPAN::Config->{build_dir}). It is a simple FIFO mechanism that deletes
- complete directories below "build_dir" as soon as the size of all
- directories there gets bigger than $CPAN::Config->{build_cache} (in MB).
- The contents of this cache may be used for later re-installations that
- you intend to do manually, but will never be trusted by CPAN itself.
- This is due to the fact that the user might use these directories for
- building modules on different architectures.
-
- There is another directory ($CPAN::Config->{keep_source_where}) where
- the original distribution files are kept. This directory is not covered
- by the cache manager and must be controlled by the user. If you choose
- to have the same directory as build_dir and as keep_source_where
- directory, then your sources will be deleted with the same fifo
- mechanism.
-
- Bundles
- A bundle is just a perl module in the namespace Bundle:: that does not
- define any functions or methods. It usually only contains documentation.
-
- It starts like a perl module with a package declaration and a $VERSION
- variable. After that the pod section looks like any other pod with the
- only difference being that *one special pod section* exists starting
- with (verbatim):
-
- =head1 CONTENTS
-
- In this pod section each line obeys the format
-
- Module_Name [Version_String] [- optional text]
-
- The only required part is the first field, the name of a module (e.g.
- Foo::Bar, ie. *not* the name of the distribution file). The rest of the
- line is optional. The comment part is delimited by a dash just as in the
- man page header.
-
- The distribution of a bundle should follow the same convention as other
- distributions.
-
- Bundles are treated specially in the CPAN package. If you say 'install
- Bundle::Tkkit' (assuming such a bundle exists), CPAN will install all
- the modules in the CONTENTS section of the pod. You can install your own
- Bundles locally by placing a conformant Bundle file somewhere into your
- @INC path. The autobundle() command which is available in the shell
- interface does that for you by including all currently installed modules
- in a snapshot bundle file.
-
-PREREQUISITES
- If you have a local mirror of CPAN and can access all files with "file:"
- URLs, then you only need a perl later than perl5.003 to run this module.
- Otherwise Net::FTP is strongly recommended. LWP may be required for
- non-UNIX systems, or if your nearest CPAN site is associated with a URL
- that is not "ftp:".
-
- If you have neither Net::FTP nor LWP, there is a fallback mechanism
- implemented for an external ftp command or for an external lynx command.
-
-UTILITIES
- Finding packages and VERSION
- This module presumes that all packages on CPAN
-
- * declare their $VERSION variable in an easy to parse manner. This
- prerequisite can hardly be relaxed because it consumes far too much
- memory to load all packages into the running program just to determine
- the $VERSION variable. Currently all programs that are dealing with
- version use something like this
-
- perl -MExtUtils::MakeMaker -le \
- 'print MM->parse_version(shift)' filename
-
- If you are author of a package and wonder if your $VERSION can be
- parsed, please try the above method.
-
- * come as compressed or gzipped tarfiles or as zip files and contain a
- "Makefile.PL" or "Build.PL" (well, we try to handle a bit more, but
- with little enthusiasm).
-
- Debugging
- Debugging this module is more than a bit complex due to interference
- from the software producing the indices on CPAN, the mirroring process
- on CPAN, packaging, configuration, synchronicity, and even (gasp!) due
- to bugs within the CPAN.pm module itself.
-
- For debugging the code of CPAN.pm itself in interactive mode, some
- debugging aid can be turned on for most packages within CPAN.pm with one
- of
-
- o debug package...
- sets debug mode for packages.
-
- o debug -package...
- unsets debug mode for packages.
-
- o debug all
- turns debugging on for all packages.
-
- o debug number
-
- which sets the debugging packages directly. Note that "o debug 0" turns
- debugging off.
-
- What seems a successful strategy is the combination of "reload cpan" and
- the debugging switches. Add a new debug statement while running in the
- shell and then issue a "reload cpan" and see the new debugging messages
- immediately without losing the current context.
-
- "o debug" without an argument lists the valid package names and the
- current set of packages in debugging mode. "o debug" has built-in
- completion support.
-
- For debugging of CPAN data there is the "dump" command which takes the
- same arguments as make/test/install and outputs each object's
- Data::Dumper dump. If an argument looks like a perl variable and
- contains one of "$", "@" or "%", it is eval()ed and fed to Data::Dumper
- directly.
-
- Floppy, Zip, Offline Mode
- CPAN.pm works nicely without network access, too. If you maintain
- machines that are not networked at all, you should consider working with
- "file:" URLs. You'll have to collect your modules somewhere first. So
- you might use CPAN.pm to put together all you need on a networked
- machine. Then copy the $CPAN::Config->{keep_source_where} (but not
- $CPAN::Config->{build_dir}) directory on a floppy. This floppy is kind
- of a personal CPAN. CPAN.pm on the non-networked machines works nicely
- with this floppy. See also below the paragraph about CD-ROM support.
-
- Basic Utilities for Programmers
- has_inst($module)
- Returns true if the module is installed. Used to load all modules into
- the running CPAN.pm that are considered optional. The config variable
- "dontload_list" intercepts the "has_inst()" call such that an optional
- module is not loaded despite being available. For example, the
- following command will prevent "YAML.pm" from being loaded:
-
- cpan> o conf dontload_list push YAML
-
- See the source for details.
-
- has_usable($module)
- Returns true if the module is installed and in a usable state. Only
- useful for a handful of modules that are used internally. See the
- source for details.
-
- instance($module)
- The constructor for all the singletons used to represent modules,
- distributions, authors, and bundles. If the object already exists,
- this method returns the object; otherwise, it calls the constructor.
-
-SECURITY
- There's no strong security layer in CPAN.pm. CPAN.pm helps you to
- install foreign, unmasked, unsigned code on your machine. We compare to
- a checksum that comes from the net just as the distribution file itself.
- But we try to make it easy to add security on demand:
-
- Cryptographically signed modules
- Since release 1.77, CPAN.pm has been able to verify cryptographically
- signed module distributions using Module::Signature. The CPAN modules
- can be signed by their authors, thus giving more security. The simple
- unsigned MD5 checksums that were used before by CPAN protect mainly
- against accidental file corruption.
-
- You will need to have Module::Signature installed, which in turn
- requires that you have at least one of Crypt::OpenPGP module or the
- command-line gpg tool installed.
-
- You will also need to be able to connect over the Internet to the public
- keyservers, like pgp.mit.edu, and their port 11731 (the HKP protocol).
-
- The configuration parameter check_sigs is there to turn signature
- checking on or off.
-
-EXPORT
- Most functions in package CPAN are exported by default. The reason for
- this is that the primary use is intended for the cpan shell or for
- one-liners.
-
-ENVIRONMENT
- When the CPAN shell enters a subshell via the look command, it sets the
- environment CPAN_SHELL_LEVEL to 1, or increments that variable if it is
- already set.
-
- When CPAN runs, it sets the environment variable PERL5_CPAN_IS_RUNNING
- to the ID of the running process. It also sets PERL5_CPANPLUS_IS_RUNNING
- to prevent runaway processes which could happen with older versions of
- Module::Install.
-
- When running "perl Makefile.PL", the environment variable
- "PERL5_CPAN_IS_EXECUTING" is set to the full path of the "Makefile.PL"
- that is being executed. This prevents runaway processes with newer
- versions of Module::Install.
-
- When the config variable ftp_passive is set, all downloads will be run
- with the environment variable FTP_PASSIVE set to this value. This is in
- general a good idea as it influences both Net::FTP and LWP based
- connections. The same effect can be achieved by starting the cpan shell
- with this environment variable set. For Net::FTP alone, one can also
- always set passive mode by running libnetcfg.
-
-POPULATE AN INSTALLATION WITH LOTS OF MODULES
- Populating a freshly installed perl with one's favorite modules is
- pretty easy if you maintain a private bundle definition file. To get a
- useful blueprint of a bundle definition file, the command autobundle can
- be used on the CPAN shell command line. This command writes a bundle
- definition file for all modules installed for the current perl
- interpreter. It's recommended to run this command once only, and from
- then on maintain the file manually under a private name, say
- Bundle/my_bundle.pm. With a clever bundle file you can then simply say
-
- cpan> install Bundle::my_bundle
-
- then answer a few questions and go out for coffee (possibly even in a
- different city).
-
- Maintaining a bundle definition file means keeping track of two things:
- dependencies and interactivity. CPAN.pm sometimes fails on calculating
- dependencies because not all modules define all MakeMaker attributes
- correctly, so a bundle definition file should specify prerequisites as
- early as possible. On the other hand, it's annoying that so many
- distributions need some interactive configuring. So what you can try to
- accomplish in your private bundle file is to have the packages that need
- to be configured early in the file and the gentle ones later, so you can
- go out for cofeee after a few minutes and leave CPAN.pm to churn away
- untended.
-
-WORKING WITH CPAN.pm BEHIND FIREWALLS
- Thanks to Graham Barr for contributing the following paragraphs about
- the interaction between perl, and various firewall configurations. For
- further information on firewalls, it is recommended to consult the
- documentation that comes with the *ncftp* program. If you are unable to
- go through the firewall with a simple Perl setup, it is likely that you
- can configure *ncftp* so that it works through your firewall.
-
- Three basic types of firewalls
- Firewalls can be categorized into three basic types.
-
- http firewall
- This is when the firewall machine runs a web server, and to access
- the outside world, you must do so via that web server. If you set
- environment variables like http_proxy or ftp_proxy to values
- beginning with http://, or in your web browser you've proxy
- information set, then you know you are running behind an http
- firewall.
-
- To access servers outside these types of firewalls with perl (even
- for ftp), you need LWP.
-
- ftp firewall
- This where the firewall machine runs an ftp server. This kind of
- firewall will only let you access ftp servers outside the firewall.
- This is usually done by connecting to the firewall with ftp, then
- entering a username like "user@outside.host.com".
-
- To access servers outside these type of firewalls with perl, you
- need Net::FTP.
-
- One-way visibility
- One-way visibility means these firewalls try to make themselves
- invisible to users inside the firewall. An FTP data connection is
- normally created by sending your IP address to the remote server and
- then listening for the return connection. But the remote server will
- not be able to connect to you because of the firewall. For these
- types of firewall, FTP connections need to be done in a passive
- mode.
-
- There are two that I can think off.
-
- SOCKS
- If you are using a SOCKS firewall, you will need to compile perl
- and link it with the SOCKS library. This is what is normally
- called a 'socksified' perl. With this executable you will be
- able to connect to servers outside the firewall as if it were
- not there.
-
- IP Masquerade
- This is when the firewall implemented in the kernel (via NAT, or
- networking address translation), it allows you to hide a
- complete network behind one IP address. With this firewall no
- special compiling is needed as you can access hosts directly.
-
- For accessing ftp servers behind such firewalls you usually need
- to set the environment variable "FTP_PASSIVE" or the config
- variable ftp_passive to a true value.
-
- Configuring lynx or ncftp for going through a firewall
- If you can go through your firewall with e.g. lynx, presumably with a
- command such as
-
- /usr/local/bin/lynx -pscott:tiger
-
- then you would configure CPAN.pm with the command
-
- o conf lynx "/usr/local/bin/lynx -pscott:tiger"
-
- That's all. Similarly for ncftp or ftp, you would configure something
- like
-
- o conf ncftp "/usr/bin/ncftp -f /home/scott/ncftplogin.cfg"
-
- Your mileage may vary...
-
-FAQ
- 1) I installed a new version of module X but CPAN keeps saying, I have
- the old version installed
-
- Probably you do have the old version installed. This can happen if a
- module installs itself into a different directory in the @INC path
- than it was previously installed. This is not really a CPAN.pm
- problem, you would have the same problem when installing the module
- manually. The easiest way to prevent this behaviour is to add the
- argument "UNINST=1" to the "make install" call, and that is why many
- people add this argument permanently by configuring
-
- o conf make_install_arg UNINST=1
-
- 2) So why is UNINST=1 not the default?
-
- Because there are people who have their precise expectations about
- who may install where in the @INC path and who uses which @INC
- array. In fine tuned environments "UNINST=1" can cause damage.
-
- 3) I want to clean up my mess, and install a new perl along with all
- modules I have. How do I go about it?
-
- Run the autobundle command for your old perl and optionally rename
- the resulting bundle file (e.g. Bundle/mybundle.pm), install the new
- perl with the Configure option prefix, e.g.
-
- ./Configure -Dprefix=/usr/local/perl-5.6.78.9
-
- Install the bundle file you produced in the first step with
- something like
-
- cpan> install Bundle::mybundle
-
- and you're done.
-
- 4) When I install bundles or multiple modules with one command there is
- too much output to keep track of.
-
- You may want to configure something like
-
- o conf make_arg "| tee -ai /root/.cpan/logs/make.out"
- o conf make_install_arg "| tee -ai /root/.cpan/logs/make_install.out"
-
- so that STDOUT is captured in a file for later inspection.
-
- 5) I am not root, how can I install a module in a personal directory?
-
- First of all, you will want to use your own configuration, not the
- one that your root user installed. If you do not have permission to
- write in the cpan directory that root has configured, you will be
- asked if you want to create your own config. Answering "yes" will
- bring you into CPAN's configuration stage, using the system config
- for all defaults except things that have to do with CPAN's work
- directory, saving your choices to your MyConfig.pm file.
-
- You can also manually initiate this process with the following
- command:
-
- % perl -MCPAN -e 'mkmyconfig'
-
- or by running
-
- mkmyconfig
-
- from the CPAN shell.
-
- You will most probably also want to configure something like this:
-
- o conf makepl_arg "LIB=~/myperl/lib \
- INSTALLMAN1DIR=~/myperl/man/man1 \
- INSTALLMAN3DIR=~/myperl/man/man3 \
- INSTALLSCRIPT=~/myperl/bin \
- INSTALLBIN=~/myperl/bin"
-
- and then the equivalent command for Module::Build, which is
-
- o conf mbuildpl_arg "--lib=~/myperl/lib \
- --installman1dir=~/myperl/man/man1 \
- --installman3dir=~/myperl/man/man3 \
- --installscript=~/myperl/bin \
- --installbin=~/myperl/bin"
-
- You can make this setting permanent like all "o conf" settings with
- "o conf commit" or by setting "auto_commit" beforehand.
-
- You will have to add ~/myperl/man to the MANPATH environment
- variable and also tell your perl programs to look into ~/myperl/lib,
- e.g. by including
-
- use lib "$ENV{HOME}/myperl/lib";
-
- or setting the PERL5LIB environment variable.
-
- While we're speaking about $ENV{HOME}, it might be worth mentioning,
- that for Windows we use the File::HomeDir module that provides an
- equivalent to the concept of the home directory on Unix.
-
- Another thing you should bear in mind is that the UNINST parameter
- can be dangerous when you are installing into a private area because
- you might accidentally remove modules that other people depend on
- that are not using the private area.
-
- 6) How to get a package, unwrap it, and make a change before building
- it?
-
- Have a look at the "look" (!) command.
-
- 7) I installed a Bundle and had a couple of fails. When I retried,
- everything resolved nicely. Can this be fixed to work on first try?
-
- The reason for this is that CPAN does not know the dependencies of
- all modules when it starts out. To decide about the additional items
- to install, it just uses data found in the META.yml file or the
- generated Makefile. An undetected missing piece breaks the process.
- But it may well be that your Bundle installs some prerequisite later
- than some depending item and thus your second try is able to resolve
- everything. Please note, CPAN.pm does not know the dependency tree
- in advance and cannot sort the queue of things to install in a
- topologically correct order. It resolves perfectly well if all
- modules declare the prerequisites correctly with the PREREQ_PM
- attribute to MakeMaker or the "requires" stanza of Module::Build.
- For bundles which fail and you need to install often, it is
- recommended to sort the Bundle definition file manually.
-
- 8) In our intranet, we have many modules for internal use. How can I
- integrate these modules with CPAN.pm but without uploading the
- modules to CPAN?
-
- Have a look at the CPAN::Site module.
-
- 9) When I run CPAN's shell, I get an error message about things in my
- "/etc/inputrc" (or "~/.inputrc") file.
-
- These are readline issues and can only be fixed by studying readline
- configuration on your architecture and adjusting the referenced file
- accordingly. Please make a backup of the "/etc/inputrc" or
- "~/.inputrc" and edit them. Quite often harmless changes like
- uppercasing or lowercasing some arguments solves the problem.
-
- 10) Some authors have strange characters in their names.
-
- Internally CPAN.pm uses the UTF-8 charset. If your terminal is
- expecting ISO-8859-1 charset, a converter can be activated by
- setting term_is_latin to a true value in your config file. One way
- of doing so would be
-
- cpan> o conf term_is_latin 1
-
- If other charset support is needed, please file a bugreport against
- CPAN.pm at rt.cpan.org and describe your needs. Maybe we can extend
- the support or maybe UTF-8 terminals become widely available.
-
- Note: this config variable is deprecated and will be removed in a
- future version of CPAN.pm. It will be replaced with the conventions
- around the family of $LANG and $LC_* environment variables.
-
- 11) When an install fails for some reason and then I correct the error
- condition and retry, CPAN.pm refuses to install the module, saying
- "Already tried without success".
-
- Use the force pragma like so
-
- force install Foo::Bar
-
- Or you can use
-
- look Foo::Bar
-
- and then "make install" directly in the subshell.
-
- 12) How do I install a "DEVELOPER RELEASE" of a module?
-
- By default, CPAN will install the latest non-developer release of a
- module. If you want to install a dev release, you have to specify
- the partial path starting with the author id to the tarball you wish
- to install, like so:
-
- cpan> install KWILLIAMS/Module-Build-0.27_07.tar.gz
-
- Note that you can use the "ls" command to get this path listed.
-
- 13) How do I install a module and all its dependencies from the
- commandline, without being prompted for anything, despite my CPAN
- configuration (or lack thereof)?
-
- CPAN uses ExtUtils::MakeMaker's prompt() function to ask its
- questions, so if you set the PERL_MM_USE_DEFAULT environment
- variable, you shouldn't be asked any questions at all (assuming the
- modules you are installing are nice about obeying that variable as
- well):
-
- % PERL_MM_USE_DEFAULT=1 perl -MCPAN -e 'install My::Module'
-
- 14) How do I create a Module::Build based Build.PL derived from an
- ExtUtils::MakeMaker focused Makefile.PL?
-
- http://search.cpan.org/search?query=Module::Build::Convert
-
- http://www.refcnt.org/papers/module-build-convert
-
- 15) I'm frequently irritated with the CPAN shell's inability to help me
- select a good mirror.
-
- The urllist config parameter is yours. You can add and remove sites
- at will. You should find out which sites have the best uptodateness,
- bandwidth, reliability, etc. and are topologically close to you.
- Some people prefer fast downloads, others uptodateness, others
- reliability. You decide which to try in which order.
-
- Henk P. Penning maintains a site that collects data about CPAN
- sites:
-
- http://www.cs.uu.nl/people/henkp/mirmon/cpan.html
-
- Also, feel free to play with experimental features. Run
-
- o conf init randomize_urllist ftpstats_period ftpstats_size
-
- and choose your favorite parameters. After a few downloads running
- the "hosts" command will probably assist you in choosing the best
- mirror sites.
-
- 16) Why do I get asked the same questions every time I start the shell?
-
- You can make your configuration changes permanent by calling the
- command "o conf commit". Alternatively set the "auto_commit"
- variable to true by running "o conf init auto_commit" and answering
- the following question with yes.
-
- 17) Older versions of CPAN.pm had the original root directory of all
- tarballs in the build directory. Now there are always random
- characters appended to these directory names. Why was this done?
-
- The random characters are provided by File::Temp and ensure that
- each module's individual build directory is unique. This makes
- running CPAN.pm in concurrent processes simultaneously safe.
-
- 18) Speaking of the build directory. Do I have to clean it up myself?
-
- You have the choice to set the config variable "scan_cache" to
- "never". Then you must clean it up yourself. The other possible
- value, "atstart" only cleans up the build directory when you start
- the CPAN shell. If you never start up the CPAN shell, you probably
- also have to clean up the build directory yourself.
-
-COMPATIBILITY
- OLD PERL VERSIONS
- CPAN.pm is regularly tested to run under 5.004, 5.005, and assorted
- newer versions. It is getting more and more difficult to get the minimal
- prerequisites working on older perls. It is close to impossible to get
- the whole Bundle::CPAN working there. If you're in the position to have
- only these old versions, be advised that CPAN is designed to work fine
- without the Bundle::CPAN installed.
-
- To get things going, note that GBARR/Scalar-List-Utils-1.18.tar.gz is
- compatible with ancient perls and that File::Temp is listed as a
- prerequisite but CPAN has reasonable workarounds if it is missing.
-
- CPANPLUS
- This module and its competitor, the CPANPLUS module, are both much
- cooler than the other. CPAN.pm is older. CPANPLUS was designed to be
- more modular, but it was never intended to be compatible with CPAN.pm.

-
- 05:04:06 <@ST47> Hey
- 05:04:21 <@ST47> Anyone ever had a problem with the FTPstats.yml getting
- corrupted?
- 05:04:49 <@ST47> It keeps getting messed up and throwing a syntax error through
- YAML::Syck and throwing my smokers into a useless state
- 06:28:45 <@ST47> Probably ran out of disk space mid-write...
- 07:53:33 <@rafl> yeah, i've seen that.

- * Curtis Jewell reports failing tests that I overlooked on cpantesters.
- Seems to be that Expect-less systems fail some tests around push/pop on
- urllist???
-
- http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.cpan.testers/2009/06/msg4356518.html
-
- Nope, I can remove Expect and still pass all tests.
-
- He is stuck in the test "urllist empty" and then gets the fail for the
- test "reordering urllist". Skipping the "urllist empty" test when no
- Expect is installed will most probably "fix" this. I mean, we're fixing
- a test, not code.
-
- Nope. Was a whitespace bug, FIXED.

- * amend version numbers and let Andy Armstrongs script care for them

- * Acme::Badexample ($VERSION = do { $_++ while 1; return $_ };) breaks
- us. Could not get a stable solution from BSD::Resource. The problem was
- that when running the r command after a while the number of $SIG{XCPU}
- interrupts increased until finally the shell ended itself. Probably a
- bug somewhere else. Giving up at this state:

- * reminder: Solaris tar cannot read tarballs with a path with more than
- 100 bytes. Wolfram re-reported it today.

- https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=43813 was the first report.

-
- git push --tags
-
- this is considered to dtrt. Can be checked visiting github and hovering
- over "all tags". According to
- http://blog.ashchan.com/archive/2008/06/30/tags-on-git/ at least.
- Problem with that is we have so many tags that we cannot scroll to the
- last in firefox.

-
- * support deprecate.pm: Nick's plan seems to be that when Switch.pm is
- installed at
-
- /Users/nick/Sandpit/511v/lib/perl5/5.11.0/Switch.pm
-
- then it is a second class citizen (because it came with perl) which
- warns when being loaded (due to deprecated.pm). But when it (the very
- same file) is installed from the CPAN it will live in a different
- location, say
-
- /Users/nick/Sandpit/511v/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.11.0/Switch.pm
-
- and then it will not warn about deprecate although the 'use deprecate'
- is in the file.
-
- The plan is to change CPAN.pm such that it installs from CPAN the very
- same version as the core version is. The difference should be recognized
- in the installation directory. So there shall be more magic in the INC
- order.

- * todo/nice to have: completion on distros such that before the slash we
- complete user ids and after the slash not ls() but existing distros. Or
- maybe if we have more than x characters we complete the distros. Or some
- such.

-
- * 12:04:17 <@Alias> What I'm suggesting is that CPAN.pm can be embedded inside of
- larger programs
-12:04:36 <@Alias> Or at least, it should be... it is extremely front-end
- centric in many places
-12:05:22 <@Alias> Well, I can't actually load up CPAN.pm inside my process, as
- it's unsafe...
-12:05:29 <@Alias> Because it does permalocks on files and stuff
-12:05:36 <@Alias> And that goes all explodey
-12:05:47 <@Alias> So I have to isolate each CPAN.pm call out in seperate
- processes
-12:06:20 <@Alias> Mostly via pip or "cpan Whatever" calls
-12:07:04 <@klapperl> maybe we can get rid of the permalocks
-12:07:11 <@Alias> That would be nice
-12:07:26 <@Alias> Also, to not apply the "don't try to reinstall" between
- user-land commands
-12:08:12 <@Alias> But if we could flush some of this stuff out, it would be nice

-
- * shlomi-regex-utf8.pl needs a trick to kill itself after a second or
- two but without alarm because alarm doesn't kill the running regexp.
- Implemented with open..."|-". It uses alarm but in the parent and the
- child runs the regex.
-
- * S/SR/SRI/Catalyst-Plugin-HTML-Widget-1.1.tar.gz also calls cpanplus.
-
-2008-11-02 Andreas J. Koenig <andreas.koenig.7os6VVqR@franz.ak.mind.de>
-
- * somebody has successfully called cpanplus. I suspect it was
- Devel-ebug-HTTP-0.32. Or Module::Install::Catalyst. Whatever. I now have
- a process standing in
- /home/sand/.cpanplus/5.11.0/build/Catalyst-Runtime-5.7015 doing nothing
- having 6 pipes open and giving me no clue.

- Yes, Leon has Module::Install 0.60 in inc/. Arrrrrrrgh.

-Class-MOP-0.64_05.tar.gz NOT OK
-
- A comment explains that the other versions did not load XS but fell back
- to the pure perl versions.
-
- It's not a trivial enough thing for me to simply fix it with an #if.
-
- Envariable CLASS_MOP_NO_XS? Fixes it, of course but does not help us much.

- * Sys-Syscall-0.22 hangs with 34066 (maint-5.8) during 02-sendfile. That
- makes Danga-Socket a DISCARD. Hmm. And then Perlbal hangs in its test.
- Hmm.
-
- update 2008-06-23: 34074@bleadperl also hangs. 34053 too. Why did I not
- notice that? 33949 same. Aha: since Jun 15 there is process 9195 running
- occupying port 60001, owned by sand, parent is 1 and it has plenty
- children. I kill it and run the tests for 33949 again. Doesn't help. Now
- process 21113, testing some t/31-realworld.t has occupied port 60001.
-
- When I kill that then the Syscall test runs through.
-
- Whose bug is that? I'd say Sys::Syscall should fail more gracefully
- instead of just hanging.
-
- Retrying 34053: now Sys-Syscall-0.22/t/01-epoll.t fails! But at least
- without hanging. Same with 33949:
-
-t/01-epoll.........

- * As the last time in 2008-03-08 today I hit the Makefile.PLs written by
- Module::Build::Compat "passthough" model. This time with
- Data-Float-0.009 and Text-SimpleTable-0.03. Why does this perl have no
- Module::Build? I thought my megainstall rules install it because they
- install Bundle::CPANxxl? Yes, I do. But M:B FAILs with current
- 5.8.9-tobe. Is it Test::Harness 3.11? At line 675 we install T:H 3.11
- and at 950 we fail the test compat.t, so yes, this is with 3.11.
-
- Retrying with 33994 I see T:H 3.11 fail in its
- t/compat/test-harness-compat.t. It has 3.10 and M:B PASSes.
-
- Retrying with 33935 I see M:B PASS with T:H 3.10. Here T:H 3.11 PASSes
- and is now installed. Testing M:B again FAILs on its t/compat.t test.
-
- Retrying with what next? I would like to have a stock 5.8.8 as it comes
- with just the bare metal.... Not needed because AndyA apparently
- already knows (witnessed on #p5p)
-
- Workaround is to force install M:B.

-
-----Program----
-eval q{use JSON 2.07};
-print $@ ? "N/A" : "OK";
-print "\n";
-
-----Output of .../pfB6YBj/perl-5.8.0@17656/bin/perl----
-OK
-
-----EOF ($?='0')----
-----Output of .../pgWUpay/perl-5.8.0@17671/bin/perl----
-N/A
-
-----EOF ($?='0')----
-
- So it is 17671. And as expected it has (pretty certainly) to do with the
- change of the PERL_VERSION in patchlevel.h from 8 to 9.

-
-> I'm going beyond that: toss the entire _make_ unless they say
-> "allow_future_timestamps". Then CPAN::Reporter could refuse to send

-
-I think that's a very reasonable way to go.

- * Data::Serializer: I stopped a binary search because of Math::Pari
-
- Then I restarted it and it ended with the impossible resolution:
-
-----Program----
-eval q{use Data::Serializer 0.44};
-print $@ ? "N/A" : "OK";
-print "\n";
-
-----Output of ...pVDHwBj/perl-5.10.0@33153/bin/perl----

-----EOF ($?='0')----
-----Output of ...pyNdNAp/perl-5.10.0@33154/bin/perl----
-N/A
-
-----EOF ($?='0')----
-
- Crap because 33154 is a patch of just a test.
-
--optimize='-g';
-+optimize='-O2';
-
--archname='i686-linux-64int';
-+archname='i686-linux';
-
- Let's remove 33154. Next iteration ends here:
-
-----Program----
-eval q{use Data::Serializer 0.44};
-print $@ ? "N/A" : "OK";
-print "\n";
-
-----Output of ...pyQ307v/perl-5.10.0@33550/bin/perl----

- After some more stepping down into the debugger I discover that somebody
- passes in an 8 character string to Blowfish and as it is UTF8 it is not
- 8 bytes and Blowfish correctly dies. Seems to be JSON 2.07 related.
- 33550 has no JSON installed. Is it that? Yes, maybe. But if I add JSON
- into the prereq mix I need to go much further back in history. 5.8.8 is
- OK, 24518 isn't and for perls before patch 25000 several things fall
- apart for different reasons.
-
- 19173 cannot have JSON and subsequently Data::Serializer succeeds. So
- the test scripts must add JSON as explicit requirement.
-
- Now I find out that JSON does not run on 17968 either. So where did JSON
- 2.07 stop? 17639 was the beginning of 5.9.0 the day after 5.8.0. And
- JSON 2.07 still did work with 17637.

-This module requires Module::Build to install itself.
- Install Module::Build from CPAN? [y]
-
- Aha. This is a special Module::Build silliness that calls CPAN
- recursively to install Module::Build::Compat. If you say no, it dies.
-
- update 2008-06-12 akoenig : what's the politically correct way to deal
- with this Makefile.PL nowadays? Large Module::Build::Compat thread at
- http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.perl5.porters/2008/01/msg133202.html
- (just a random point in the middle), no conclusion there. My conclusion:
- install Module::Build really early and never see this discussion again.
- And if Module::Build cannot be built? When this happens it will be fixed
- within days or we can force install it and with 5.10 this is moot.
-
- Nope, changing mind again. If there is no reason to use "passthrough",
- they really should use "traditional", the only sane option when there is
- no special reason why you'd absolutely need Module::Build.

-

-
- * http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=32525: sent me a nice patch
- to make the listings prettier by using representative module names for
- the distros that have one so instead of this:
-
-App::Prove 3.07 3.08 ANDYA/Test-Harness-3.08.tar.gz
-DBD::Gofer::Transport::Base 0.010088 0.010377 TIMB/DBI-1.602.tar.gz
-
- ....we would see
-
-DBI 1.601 1.602 TIMB/DBI-1.602.tar.gz
-Test::Harness 3.07 3.08 ANDYA/Test-Harness-3.08.tar.gz
-
- I rolled my own implementation of this idea today that needed less code
- to change. It costs a bit more CPU to sort the raw list of modules and
- the stupid thing is that we sort all, not only those that are being
- displayed finally. But that was always our goal: to display while we go
- so the user gets information as soon as possible. So now the list is
- sorted by the boolean "representative module" and on second order
- alphabetically. This means that after a first pass through the alphabet
- there is a second as in:
-
-XML::SimpleObject::LibXML 0.53 0.60 DBRIAN/XML-SimpleObject-LibXML-0.60.tar.gz
-Catalyst::Model::Search::Item undef 0.01 MRAMBERG/Catalyst-Model-Search-0.01.tar.gz

-
- * Frank Wiegand tells me stories about a bug in AUTOLOAD, version, or
- CPAN.pm.
-
- http://perlmonks.org/?node_id=665058
-
- After installing a few thousand modules I can reproduce the failure.
- With both 1.9205 and current repository version. I must call 'reload
- index' and then 'r'. An 'r' when loading the data from Metadata
- succeeds.
-
- Introducing more evals allows me to identify the modules that *trigger*
- the bug:
-
- 'Acme::MetaSyntactic::nethack':
- 'Class::Accessor::Classy':
- 'Class::DBI':
- 'Class::Std':
- 'Config::Std':
- 'Getopt::Euclid':
- 'Smart::Comments':
- 'Sub::Installer':
- 'Text::Balanced':
-
- I can then also step through the debugger in the AutoLoader which
- believes it is being called for:
-
- DB<<11>> x $AUTOLOAD
-0 'main::version::(""'
-
- Before we reach there we see a version object that looks like so:
-
- DB<7> x $have
-0 main::version=HASH(0xcc1b6ec)
- 'original' => 'v1.0.0'
- 'qv' => 1
- 'version' => ARRAY(0xcc1b8e4)
- 0 1
- 1 0
- 2 0
-
- and the debugger displays it as such, so apparently overloading is
- turned off somehow. Because if I construct such an object manually, it
- has overloading and the 'x $have' just does:
-
- DB<16> x $have
-0 v1.0.0
-
-
- I now have it down to:
-
-% /home/src/perl/repoperls/installed-perls/maint-5.8/p8tnrrm/perl-5.8.0@27144/bin/perl -Ilib -MCPAN -e '
-use CPAN;
-CPAN::Shell->reload("index");
-$TRACEMODULE = CPAN::Shell->expand('Module','Acme::MetaSyntactic::nethack');
-$traceinst = $TRACEMODULE->inst_version;
-print $traceinst;
-'
-
- Bombs immediately.
-
- My perllocal.pod has many candidates that might have changed something.
-
- A binary search would probably compare two perls and add one module
- after the other to the one that is still sane?
-
- stop,stop,stop Frank has found the culprit in Safe.pm 2.14.
-
- * Could it be a way to increase responsibility consciousness among MI
- users: report it as a bug when they distribute an old version? Makes
- little sense in the absence of a good recent version. Ajj, but Chroniton
- distributes 0.63 and that version seems to have not even a check for
- PERL5_CPANPLUS_IS_RUNNING.
-
- http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=32984
-
- * A plan how we could protect the world from recursive usage. Inc the
- counter in the environment, display it, display in which directory we
- are, sleep for a long and increasing time, recommend the user to hit ^C
- and file a bug report. Display the process number. Display a countdown
- when we will continue. Display some sort of stack trace.

- * Alias says: "YAML::Tiny is quite clear about what it is, a module that
- supports reading and writing of the block-mode JSON-subset of the YAML
- specification."
-
- mauzo writes a more complete spec:
-
-Perl doesn't have a formal spec, either, yet it seems to acquire its fair share of bugs :).
-
-YAML::Tiny has a perfectly decent (informal, implicit) spec:
-
- 1. if write_string is passed any Perl data structure consisting only of unmagical scalars, arrays and hashes, produce a spec-compliant YAML document representing it which can be parsed by YAML::Tiny or any more complete YAML parser;
- 2. if write_string is passed any other Perl data structure, report an error saying so;
- 3. if read_string is passed any spec-compliant YAML document, either
- 1. parse that document correctly and return the corresponding Perl data structure, or
- 2. report an error that this document is unsupported and a more complete parser should be used;
- 4. if read_string is passed anything that isn't a spec-compliant YAML document, report an error saying so.
-
-Any other behaviour, such as Adam has just fixed, is a bug. The only thing that might be useful is documentation of which cases get 3.1 and which get 3.2.
-
- I must write a RT ticket demanding these specs become part of the manpage.

- * Gtk2 has one single PASS. It fails on 27002 more or less the same way
- as with current 5.10. It fails on 23023 because Glib fails there. Maybe
- it would be interesting to find the place in history when Glib started
- working and then to run Gtk2 through that version. Just a binarysearch
- without --build should do.

-
- Perfect! The error summary with 25948 is shorter than the one with 5.10.
-
- Wohoo, on "look" the DISPLAY isn't set, of course. But then the test
- succeeds just fine:
-
-DISPLAY=:121 make test TEST_FILES="t/GdkDisplayManager.t" TEST_VERBOSE=1
-PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1 /home/src/perl/repoperls/installed-perls/perl/pdv4QaU/perl-5.8.0@25948/bin/perl "-MExtUtils::Command::MM" "-e" "test_harness(1, 'blib/lib', 'blib/arch')" t/GdkDisplayManager.t

-All tests successful.
-Files=1, Tests=4, 1 wallclock secs ( 0.02 usr 0.00 sys + 0.25 cusr 0.01 csys = 0.28 CPU)
-Result: PASS
-
- But from 'test Gtk2' in the CPAN shell I get:
-
-t/GdkDisplayManager..................The application 'GdkDisplayManager.t' lost its connection to the display :121.0;
-most likely the X server was shut down or you killed/destroyed
-the application.
- Dubious, test returned 1 (wstat 256, 0x100)
- No subtests run
-t/GdkDnd.............................Gdk-WARNING **: Drops for GDK_DRAG_PROTO_ROOTWIN must be handled internally at t/GdkDnd.t line 100.
-ok
-
-
- So under CPAN shell the connection is lost, under 'make test' tests are
- succeeding? NO, under make test with arguments it works, under make test
- without arguments it fails. NO, it's once again RANDOM TEST RESULTS.
-
- When I run the command
-
- DISPLAY=:121 make test TEST_FILES="t/00.Gtk2.t t/01.GtkWindow.t t/02.GtkContainer.t t/Gdk.t t/GdkCairo.t t/GdkColor.t t/GdkCursor.t t/GdkDisplay.t t/GdkDisplayManager.t"
-
- several times then I get both a success and a failure. But the problem
- case is always the last one.
-
- AND there's another one that is even more annoying:
-
-DISPLAY=:121 make test TEST_FILES=t/PangoLayout.t
-PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1 /home/src/perl/repoperls/installed-perls/perl/pdv4QaU/perl-5.8.0@25948/bin/perl "-MExtUtils::Command::MM" "-e" "test_harness(0, 'blib/lib', 'blib/arch')" t/PangoLayout.t
-t/PangoLayout......1/68 Modification of a read-only value attempted at t/PangoLayout.t line 134.
-# Looks like you planned 68 tests but only ran 36.
-# Looks like your test died just after 36.
-t/PangoLayout...... Dubious, test returned 255 (wstat 65280, 0xff00)
- Failed 32/68 subtests
-
-
- If I run it in the debugger it loses track of the debugger context
- completely and I cannot set a breakpoint. At least with 25948. So
- switching to current bleadperl I reach that line and see that the
- argument 23 is sent to some C lib and there it chokes. Not my area of
- interest.
-
- I made the random test results a ticket:

-
- No, it's just a buggy question/answer game for installing dependencies.

-
- Downgrading to 1.815 does not help. Downgrading to libdb 4.3 does not help either.
-
- My perl 32147 passes all tests, it has DB_File 1.816 already. I
- re-install 1.816 and re-test Encode::MAB2 and it succeeds again.
-
- My perl 32208 fails that test, it has 1.816 already. I re-install 1.816
- and re-test Encode::MAB2 and it fails again.
-
- Everything looks like a perl bug except that between 32202 and 32204
- nothing interesting happened.
-
- So does the downgrade of libdb only have an effect on newer perls? If
- so, then we will see 32177 and all others I build now succeed.
-
- I do not understand the reason for that. Reading the output of the perl
- compilation indicates that -ldb is called on the linker for DB_File.so.
- But why is there a -L/usr/local/lib? Dunno, but irrelevant because there
- is no libdb. And DB_File is a dynamic extension that gets stored into
- ../../lib/auto/DB_File/DB_File.so. This then gets installed into

- * 32327 was a debugging build. I see a strange INC path without blib but
- I see nothing suspect in the two patches 329 and 330 (328 is maintperl).
- And the diff in the autobundles is a bit funny because 327 started
- earlier and finished later, so it is a mix of upgrades and downgrades.

- Module::Build 0.2808 vs 0.2808_01 is the most likely cause. But no, this
- is it not. I tried it on 32354 which gives still a FAIL and then
- downgraded to M:B 1.2808 and it stayed a FAIL. Upgrading to 0.2808_01
- again does no change things either.
-
- Ahhh, what does it really mean for a test script when ther is a shebang

-
- use fields;
- use Class::PseudoHash;
- # $ref = Class::PseudoHash->new;
- $Class::PseudoHash::FixedKeys = 0;
-
- Nope, does not seem to work.
-
- * To write a bradfitz special BBC it needs a list of all his modules
- that are broken because of pseudo hashes.
-
- Danga::Socket is only the lowest-level broken module. As long as it is
- not fixed we cannot even *see* the others (unless we read the source).
-
- * Test::Distribution is living in a strangely infected neighborhood. E.g. List::Tuples fails with
-
- NKH/List-Tuples-0.03.tar.gz
- /usr/bin/make test -- NOT OK
-//hint// to see the cpan-testers results for installing this module, try:
- reports NKH/List-Tuples-0.03.tar.gz
-Running make install
- make test had returned bad status, won't install without force
-Failed during this command:
- ATOURBIN/rpm-build-perl-0.6.5.tar.gz : make_test NO
- ZEV/Test-Dependencies-0.08.tar.gz : make_test NO
- SMUELLER/Test-Strict-0.08.tar.gz : make_test NO
- NKH/Carp-Diagnostics-0.03.tar.gz : make_test NO
- NKH/List-Tuples-0.03.tar.gz : make_test NO
-
- I need Cantrell's website for resolving. AHA: 0% chance of success:)
-
- Actually this example is exposing the problem that is in the system that
- failing modules with failing dependencies are not reported on
- cpantesters: Carp::Diagnostics has 2 fails but only 2 reports, not more.
- Probably because Test::Dependencies has so many fails. Downgrading to
- Test::Dependencies 0.07 also fails a test but "CPAN::Reporter: test
- results were not valid, Prerequisite missing."
-
- - B::PerlReq ...missing.
- - PerlReq::Utils ...missing.
-
- B::PerlReq missing in megainstall and a candidate for BBC. Fails with
- blead, succeeds with 5.8.8. Now also Test::Dependencies has a test.
-
- Update 2007-12-26 : Ticket to Test-Dependencies opened today
- http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=31906 But both
- Carp-Diagnostics and List-Tuples are by Nadim and make no sense as it

-
- So 31790 has only 3.25 according to the m command.
-
- And I get lots of these messages:
-
-Use of uninitialized value $file in string ne at /home/src/perl/repoperls/installed-perls/perl/pNaGaP6/perl-5.8.0@31790/lib/5.9.5/File/Spec/Unix.pm line 312.
-Use of uninitialized value $file in concatenation (.) or string at /home/src/perl/repoperls/installed-perls/perl/pNaGaP6/perl-5.8.0@31790/lib/5.9.5/File/Spec/Unix.pm line 320.
-
- And after that failing tests.
-
- The File/Spec.pm in current bleadperl 32269 is the same, but I do not
- get these errors. Maybe the r command gives us a clue? No, it spits too
- much output.
-
- So I try an "update" to svk 3446 which was before Rich's patches and the
- failures are the same. I should also try 3275. Indeed, the test failure
- stays which should now have proven that it is not a change in my code
- that broke but something that which I have installed in my smoke perls.
-
- I should try perls close to 31790: 31613 and 31882. OK and OK. Now I can
- go through diffs in the modules and upgrade until I have the jerk. Fun.
- [...hours later...] This strategy does not lead anywhere.
-
- 32248 has no problem with this test either. But the scope of the problem
- to compare whole trees with hundreds of interdependencies is simply too
- big.
-
- New idea: CPAN::Test::Dummy::Perl5::Make has been installed on those
- perls, has it not? Yes. And when I uninstall it, all's well.

- 30425 CatalystX-CRUD Cleaning up /tmp directory
-
- * Today a new 32025 maintperl finished and it has many fails that I have
- not noticed before. See 2007-11-01T02:38. This was due to the glitch
- with disabling Sub-Uplevel. So this should not have caused harm because
- no reports were sent out in such cases.

-
- * Rethink the recent mail exchange with Barbie about timestamps in the future.
-
- * Some distro removed the Config.pm of my testing perls so I lost 6 perl
- installations. I removed them immediately and now let only one perl run.
-
- From the history of sent test reports it seems that Perl-Dist is to blame.
-
-I'm starting cpan for bleadperl@32194 which has a working -V command so must have
-a Config.pm. Let me see it:
-
- % ls -l /home/src/perl/repoperls/installed-perls/perl/pICDJJz/perl-5.8.0@32194/lib/5.10.0/i686-linux-thread-multi-64int/Config.pm

-
- * File-MMagic-XS failed on 32195, 32186 which is threaded and debugging.
- I started to watch F:M:X with 31568 but we have one other
- threaded+debugging perl since then: 32032. But yes, 32032 was not a
- regular megainstall. So let's try DMAKI/File-MMagic-XS-0.09002.tar.gz
- with 32032. And on a maintperl? Try 31223.
-
- Yes, it fails with blead@32032 (panic free from wrong pool), it succeeds
- with maint@31223.
-
- And it fails for this:
-
- MMagic.xs:455: error: expected declaration specifiers or '...' before '(' token'
-
- with 27680, 27704, 27705, 27729, 27732, 27733, 27734
-
- It fails with the same panic free from wrong pool on 30953, 30952,

-
- Next: According to the comment in 27735 we must go back in time before
- 27649 and I see a good place at 23232 which is 51 points from 23181
- which is quite a good distance. 23240 would have been the better choice.
- Oh well.

- * watching /tmp is boring and I want to delay the next RT tickets until

-
- * I wish I had an overview over all BBC articles and the status they are
- in and links to the articles and the RT tickets and all postings that
- preceded BBC saying something like "23456 breaks Term::ReadLine::Gnu".
- This (at least the still open parts) should find its way into
- perl5100delta.pod. Math::Pari and T:R:G being the most prominent
- victims.
-
- * Tcl maybe broke around 31941? We do not have the config of our perls
- in the database, so SQL will not do it. We need to find all Tcl=OK for
- perl=debugging. So some grep through all perl-V and all VKON! or so.

-
- This means 31939-31941 and we need a config with optimize=-g. Nonono,
- because 39 and 41 have long since been purged we need to order 40
- directly, then the neighbor and then write the BBC (unless the neighbor
- behaves differently from what we see in the database; which means 41
- must fail).
-
- 31941 is easy peasy. The subject line says exactly what it is doing. But
- is it correct to limit an assertion to debugging mode? Are the two
- extensions doing stupid things? Let's examine the diagnostics. Tcl:

- * Net-Daemon's recent FAILS under threads seems to be due to the way the
- old Thread.pm has now become a compatibility layer. Its t/thread.t tests
-
-if (!eval { require Thread; my $t = Thread->new(sub { }) }) {
- print "1..0\n";
- exit 0;
-}
-
- The compat layer seems to have started working between 30910 and 32032:
-
-% for p in `binsearchaperl --show-cache --bounds 27048-33000 --apcdir /home/src/perl/repoperls/APC --prefix /home/src/perl/repoperls/installed-perls --cachefilter tests/filter-threaded.pl `; do
-$p -MThread -e 'print substr($^X,64), ": ", eval{Thread->new(sub { })} ? "" : "not ", "ok\n"'
-done 2>/dev/null
-@27048/bin/perl: ok
-@29353/bin/perl: not ok
-@30910/bin/perl: not ok
-@31500/bin/perl: ok
-@32032/bin/perl: ok
-@32174/bin/perl: ok
-@32186/bin/perl: ok
-@32194/bin/perl: ok
-@32195/bin/perl: ok
-
- but probably not good enough to run the whole code in t/thread.t.
-
- I would guess that somewhere between 27048 and 29353 the compatibility
- layer broke heavily and somewhere between 30910 and 31500 they
- fixed it a bit. 30955 was the last change to Thread.pm. The fix for our
- minimal testcase came a bit before that:
-
-----Program----
-require Thread;
-print eval{Thread->new(sub { })} ? "ok\n" : "not ok\n";
-
-----Output of .../pCY4xFO/perl-5.8.0@30952/bin/perl----
-not ok
-
-----EOF ($?='0')----
-----Output of .../pQ8RfLX/perl-5.8.0@30953/bin/perl----
-ok
-Perl exited with active threads:
- 1 running and unjoined
- 0 finished and unjoined
- 0 running and detached
-
-----EOF ($?='0')----
-
-----Program----
-require Thread;
-print eval{Thread->new(sub { })} ? "ok\n" : "not ok\n";
-
-----Output of .../ppYBvaY/perl-5.8.0@27704/bin/perl----
-ok
-A thread exited while 2 threads were running.
-
-----EOF ($?='0')----
-----Output of .../pBY7a0s/perl-5.8.0@27705/bin/perl----
-not ok
-
-----EOF ($?='0')----
-
- Running a Net::Daemon 0.43 comare between 30952 and 53 shows the
- equivalent result. Now let's see for Devel-Caller and Sub-Multi.
- Devel-Caller needs a separate investigation (fails on both 3095[23]).
- Now I discover the dependency chain of Sub-Multi. I see that
- Devel::LexAlias depends on Devel-Caller. And Data::Bind depends on
- Devel::LexAlias and Sub::Multi depends on Data::Bind. So Sub::Multi can
- be dropped from further investigation.
-
- Note that we have not yet looked which construct it is that breaks in
- the test. So it might be interesting to look if 27704 was still ok. Yes,
- it passes all tests and does not skip the t/thread.t.
-
- BBC article is posted.

- I found the lib.pm that should be found at
- /home/src/perl/repoperls/installed-perls/perl/pFAmPwI/perl-5.8.0@32085/lib/5.10.0/i686-linux-64int
- and indeed this is missing in the above list.
-
- Maybe it is because of relocateableinc? Not directly, of course, because
- we have had it working for 32085 and do not have it working for 32085
- now. So to compare autobundles we would first need a perl that currently
- correctly builds and tests mod_perl.
-
- 32059 nowadays has the same problem. 32032 ditto. I untar the apache
- tarball once again and retry with 32032. Same result. 32009 was built on
- Oct 3 and I want to see the logs really, really exactly as they were.
- And what do I find? The same results but at that time CPAN::Reporter
- reported OK although so many tests were not run. A very interesting
- discovery. Probably this is just thanks to Test::Harness 2.99 now
- popping up?
-
- I'll now skip back in time and visit 31824 (if possible). It was the
- first perl I built with relocateableinc and it reported OK on mod_perl.
- Of course it also has the same bug with mod_perl 1.30. CPAN::Reporter
- reports (and reported on 2007-09-09) UNKNOWN in this case. But it got
- installed and make install was OK, so I did not discover the bug.
-
- Next stop in our time travel shall bring us to 31790 (2007-09-05T01:07).
- It was the last perl without relocateableinc. And all tests run and
- pass. Cheerio!

- * spamassassin seems to have bugs in the test suite that then are
- ignored. Seems to call out to the perl in the path which chokes on the
- prototype "_".
-
- * DWHEELER/Exception-Class-DBI-0.95.tar.gz failed for the first time
- ever in 32154. It was with DBI 1.601 and I think it was the first to
- encounter 1.601. Yes, when compiling with 32152 it was still DBI 1.59.

-
-Failed 1 test out of 1430, 99.93% okay.
- ../ext/threads/shared/t/waithires.t
-
- on perl itself. 'make nok' sent. Seems to be because I tried a threaded
- perl. Sorry, forgot to make a backup, reconstruct running...
-
- It turns out that I see the same on 32174 and that it is load dependent.
- And JDHEDDEN says this is not a bug and he is not willing to change the
- timeouts. I wonder if this is related to threaded builds (321[57]4 were
- threaded) or really only load driven.
-
- * Yesterday I built my first jifty installation with current SVN and
- bleadperl. 32147 was the patchnumber. Soon after this installation was
- completed this perl was used to test Email-Send-2.191 and it failed
- miserably with errors leading to something jifty:

- Retrying the tests with 32152 succeeds nicely and with 32147 I can
- reproduce the bug. Resolution simple:

- * Variable::Magic is a candidate for a BBC article but the binary search
- is veiled by the fact that 28380/28381 is an important transition but
- there is another important transition. 28381 fails all tests with glibc
- noise but nowadays only one test fails. I need to find the transition
- from glibc noise to code that at least runs.
-
- The other end seems to be 28968 so that 28969 fixed the glibc thing. But
- this is very surprising because that patch only "bumped version to
- 5.9.5". Maybe Variable::Magic uses the 4/5 somewhere.
-
- Now running Variable::Magic tests with 28969:
-
-Failed Test Stat Wstat Total Fail List of Failed

-t/31-array.t 2 512 21 2 20-21

- * 32138 break keepcool and pingomatic--why? The logfiles for them are
- not being split out. In the original logfile I see
-
-Can't open perl script "/tmp/Ab5Z0NrlWf": No such file or directory
-Can't open perl script "/tmp/Ab5Z0NrlWf": No such file or directory
-
- So it seems that I may have deleted a wrong /tmp file and actually
- disturbed CPAN::Reporter and caused a false negative.

- * Going to report tmp directory. I already have reported:
-
- 26078 Config-JSON: Using predictable filenames in /tmp is a security
- hazard and should be avoided even in test scripts. Besides if they
- aren't cleaned up they lead to failing tests. Please use File::Temp
- instead.
-
- 26951 Cache-FastMmap (resolved): Using predictable filenames in /tmp has
- some security implications too, so should be avoided. In this case it
- simply causes the test to fail because another user has occupied this
- file or directory.
-
- 26538 HTML-Scrubber: The first bug is that the tmp file was not cleaned
- up and left ove from a different user in /tmp/. Generally it is
- considered a security issue to put predictable files into /tmp.
- File::Temp should be used instead.
-
- 26536 Module-Refresh (resolved): The first bug is that the test script
- does not clean up after itself. /tmp/FooBar.pm is still around from a
- test by a different user. In general it is considered a security issue
- to write predictable file names into /tmp. Better you use File::Temp
- (and remove the files at the end nonetheless).
-
- Today I find a DBM Deep file, one that starts with "use strict;\nuse
- ExtUtils::MakeMaker;\nuse CPAN::Version;\n\n# read module and prereq
- string from STDIN\nwhile ( <STDIN> ) {...", a directory with two
- DBM-Deep files, about 40 "Hello world" perl programs, all at 23:45, a
- catalyst logo in PNG format at 23:47 and many, many more

- * Slaven sends a miserable FAIL with 5.6.2 and YAML 0.39.
-
- * The failing tests on mod_perl, Archive-Any, and GIS-Distance are
- repeatable with 32104 and Log-Dispatch-Config
- (http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=30073) has joined them in
- failing. I've stopped all running loops to look around in the /tmp
- directory.
-
- 32090 had a working A:A. fforce test on it now fails with
-
-Running make test
-Bareword found where operator expected at /tmp/N0WH1MFuPP line 1, near "'/usr/bin/make test 'TEST_FILES"

-
- And the tempfile is gone. Starting to cleanup my /tmp directory and
- rerunning the A:A test again and again. AA itself leaves a testfile in
- /tmp. Not every time?
-
- Found something, not related to the tmp directory. I have
-
-test:
- args:
- - "TEST_FILES=t/00compile.t t/Any.t t/fail.t t/perl-critic.t t/pod.t t/type.t"
-
- in the distroprefs file. If I remove it we succeed. Finding a new bug by
- working around another. Who broke the distroprefs file? It is not
- MakeMaker or Harness. If I issue 'make test TEST_F...' manually it is
- fine. It's something coming earlier.
-
- It's in CPAN::Reporter. If I turn reporting off it goes away.
- Downgrading to 0.99_1[540] same problem. Downgrading to 99_05 nope,
- 99_01 nope. To 0.4801 good.
-
- Ticks in a command. Patch sent to David.

-
- It's about extracting. This Archive::Unzip::Burst looks interesting. Why
- do we not have it?
-
- 31790 compiles it and tests ok and has it installed.
-
- 31824 has an old CPAN but it compiles it and tests OK. PAR Packer takes
- a long time to compile. It fails at compilation stage with
-

-Usage: ./par [ -Alib.par ] [ -Idir ] [ -Mmodule ] [ src.par ] [ program.pl ]
- ./par [ -B|-b ] [-Ooutfile] src.par
-
- Maybe it has to do with option parsing? I mean, when I *install*
- Archive::Unzip::Burst and then try PAR again from scratch, it fails with
- the same error message. Getopt::ArgvFile is a prereq and has not changed.
-
- 31790 has Getopt::Attribute missing. I retry to fforce test it on 31790.
- It compiles it. Running test ... (running out of time)
-
- For 31824 I hide Getopt::Attribute now and fforce test PAR-Packer-0.976
- here too. It fails again with the same error message.
-
- For 31824 I downgrade Module::Build from 0.2808_01 to 0.2808 which 790
- had. PAR-Parser still fails with the same error.
-
- For 31824 I downgrade from E:I 1.44 to
- YVES/ExtUtils-Install-1.41_04.tar.gz. I expect that if this has an
- influence it would show in the installation of other modules and so do
- not expect a change in behaviour. And so it gets confirmed.
-
- For 31824 I find a File::Path 2.00_11 which is lower than the 2.01 in
- 31790.
-
- Can I see the above par command once again for 31790?
-
-./par -I../myldr/.. -I../blib/lib -I"/home/sand/.cpan/build/PAR-Packer-0.976-slY0pI/inc" -I"/home/src/perl/repoperls/installed-perls/perl/pNaGaP6/perl-5.8.0@31790/lib/5.9.5/i686-linux-64int" -I"/home/src/perl/repoperls/installed-perls/perl/pNaGaP6/perl-5.8.0@31790/lib/5.9.5" -I"/home/src/perl/repoperls/installed-perls/perl/pNaGaP6/perl-5.8.0@31790/lib/site_perl/5.9.5/i686-linux-64int" -I"/home/src/perl/repoperls/installed-perls/perl/pNaGaP6/perl-5.8.0@31790/lib/site_perl/5.9.5" -I"/home/sand/.cpan/build/PAR-Packer-0.976-slY0pI" -I"." -q -B -O../script/parldyn
-
- I realize that downgrading 31824 is more cumbersome than upgrading
- 31790. Just run r command and pick something and retry PAR-Parser. I
- picked Set::Scalar and then realized that I'm hunting two bugs at once.
- One is the above "./par" command that triggers a "Usage" error, the
- other is a failing 20-pp test. And I see now that 31790 fails on test
- 20-pp. Unfortunately it is a very time consuming test and I must restart
- me research to find explain each error separately.

-
- This also marked the change from 64bitint=define zu undef and a non
- debugging perl, CPAN::Reporter 0.99_1[34], lots of other differences.
-
- But I upgraded 32001 to DBM::Deep 1.0006 and now tests of IPC::PubSub
- fail. Downgrading to DBM::Deep 1.0005 is refused because tests fail. But
- it was not 1.0005, it was 1.0004 that which IPC::PubSub worked with
- flawlessly.

- YAML tests and subsequently cannot patch/install Module::Build without
- intervention. 24439 OK. 24759 OK.
-
- But 24759 depends on YAML and YAML has was not working for 24759 so
- CPAN.pm didn't install it. We have all tests pass but no installation.
- Need to force it. And YAML::XS is also tunneled.
-
- So we have a very dark tunnel around 24759 with neither YAML nor

- * RCLAMP/POE-Component-Server-HTTP-0.09.tar.gz looks like a BBC
- candidate 22245 OK. But it's shadowed by the depends on POE-API-Peek
- which was broken by blead for a while around 27514.
-
- I have the impression that POE::API::Peek started to work on 31051 and
- that POE::Component::Server::HTTP now works too since I have added a
- dependency on POE::API::Peek in my distroprefs file. Nope, the
- dependency on POE::API::Peek is in the Makefile.PL of P:C:S:HTTP.
-
- Apparently all's well. *Maybe* there's also a configure_requires on POE
- needed somewhere, dunno.
-
- * IFF Compress::Zlib 2.X does not work we can take
- PMQS/Compress-Zlib-1.42.tar.gz as a replacement!
-
- Would be nice to find a replacement for Scalar-List-Utils too. 1.19 does
- not work with blead@23023, but 1.17 does.

-
- * digging into gtk. It always failed because somebody told the Gtk
- self-configuration that something on my system was not sufficient. No
- helpful diagnostics were ever provided.
-
- Running through the debugger today reveals that it is due to pkg-config.
-
- Asking pkg-config with the right options reveals a few things
-
- # pkg-config --exists --print-errors 'gtk+-2.0'
-
- I had to call it several times and to install libxmu-dev libxinerama-dev
- libxinerama1 (who would have guessed?)
-
- This does at least let the above command return true.
-
- But there is still a version requirement in the Gtk2 package that says
-
- gtk+-2.0 >= 2.0.0
-
- And surprise, we now fulfill it.
-
- I think the only bug is the --silence-errors option that I saw in the
- debugger. It should be replaced with --print-errors. Otherwise the user
- never sees an error and has to suffer.

- * MSISK/HTML-TableExtract-2.10.tar.gz: I had already RTed months ago

- distroprefs/MSISK.HTML-TableExtract.yml and that is why since then I
- have ONLY fails.
-
- Would be cool to offer a fix though.
-
- But in the interest of sanity it would be better to write a distroprefs
- file automatically that's based on some criterium like, say, no release
- for over N months although since that many months nothing but fail
- reports. This would also be interesting for CPANTS.

- Now we're done. I urgently need a solution for that. Both for a
- bugreport and for the meta stuff with probably POE. Or commandline.
-
- Interesting enough is that Mt-5.421 is young and I have 4 OKs up to
- 31945. Compare autobundle with @31945 and @31952 and @31955:

- pass over to the RECENT file. Then the receiver needs a more tolerant

- since then it's red, seemingly failing on the make phase. re-testing
- with an older perl, @31613, succeeds on the make phase. But this doesn't
- prove anything because all prereqs are already there. And then it fails
- on the test phase in t/xvals.t. 31650 also failed on xvals.t. Now we
- have a prove that it's not blead related but to some other factor.
-
- But now, what has been upgraded on 31613 since then? Unfortunately
- timestamps have changed because of the cleanup of hardlinks. autobundle
- comparisons don't help because I have no succeeding version of PDL at
- hand.
-
- I'll have to try these:

- * tentative posting to Module::Build
-
- Recently, on IRC (off the top of my head):
-
- <klapperl>: so can you explain why the compatibility layer is broken?
- <ewilhelm>: jeez, it is the *compatibility layer*
-
- I think it's time that Module::Build considers another compatibility
- layer in addition to the existing one. This is just a raw sketch to get
- some talk going, I have not actually tried to work this out. So what
- would people think of this:
-
- Build.PL has a new option
- ...
- diplomatic_makefile_pl => 1,
- ...
-
- generated Makefile.PL
- if (eval { require Module::Build; 1}){
- # if user has Module::Build installed we use it
- system $^X, "Build.PL";
- write_diplomatic_makefile;
- } else {
- beg_user_to_install_module_build_asap();
- write_traditional_compat_makefile();
- }
-
- the generated diplomatic Makefile would then contain:
- default:
- ./Build
- test:
- ./Build test
- install
- ./Build install
- [...etc...]
-
- Has this been tried? Does it have pitfalls? It seems so easy and
- natural. Isn't anybody keen implementing it?

- * Bug: somebody broke *.bs files with crap content recently. Leads to
- tons of error messages with no (?) consequences but screen noise. I
- removed all these broken *.bs files but now I have no idea where they
- were coming from. Too much smoking produces too thick air.
-
- Mark Overmeer just complained about the resulting smoke reports. When I
- look into my mailq I find only two large mails waiting for delivery, all
- others are fine. So how do I find out who wrote these files?
-
- I first remove the crap in my mailq. Done, so we have only 235 mails in
- the mqueue which look OK. For the record, the following are the latest
- smokes (but their dependencies naturally missing). All times CEST. At
- 21:27 we had already a broken system.

- What was smoking with 31223 at 22:09? I just searched for my reports on
- rpm-build-perl on http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.cpan.testers/ and
- they seem to be fine.
-
- In my eyes there is only one candidate at the moment: DDS.
-
- In the meantime Max Maischain (CORION) complained as well.
-
- Update 2007-09-08: I just discovered that not only the 10 perls were
- broken that I'm using to smoke but many, many others as well. The
- timestamp of the file is 2007-09-06T22:09, they have 2217 bytes and have
- the same md5sum and although I have already deleted plenty of them I
- still count 22049 of these files. Somebody was really busy.
-
- Hrm. Now I have a suspect. My trimtrees is most likely to blame. These
- files will have the same inode and somebody only changed one random
- zero-byte file without unlinking it first and all this happened. Yes?
- Indeed, the inode is 1855345.
-
- So I'll have to fix trimtrees:-(

- * hashed out on the bus with anonymous, how the endless loop of RECENT
- testing shall look like: one never dying job produces POE sessions that
- shall test some distro with some perl. This queue is always keeping two
- or three jobs active in parallel and watches stdout+stderr. If for more
- than 10 minutes no output is produced the job gets a SIGSTOP and it is
- moved to the unlimited(?) heap of hangers and the next job from the
- queue is made active. Somebody provides us an interface to send stdin to
- one of the hangers. As soon as this is done that job gets queued again
- and is not considered a hanger anymore. The queuerunner will then send
- it a SIGCONT to activate it. Somebody provides us an interface to list
- all hangers, and one to show the output of one hanger.

- jariaalto/28952: move gpg key import from Makefile.PL to FirstTime and
- allow tight control over the gpg call itself.
-
- adam kennedy: set XXX_VERSION
-
- david cantrell: make verbosity controllable: $redef, myconfig, Lockfile,
- PERL5LIB, DEL, scanning, scan_cache, ... This should probably be done
- with some optprint method to make the call selfdocumenting. But that's
- not the $Frontend's business. We must change
- $CPAN::Frontend->myprint($what) to
- CPAN::Shell->optprint(category,threshold,$what).
-
- david cantrell: add a CPAN::API::HOWTO manpage DONE
-
- Integrate cpan_home into the new FirstTime manpage.
-
- differentiate what to download on which command: an 'a' or 'ls' needs
- only authors index. see also "ttl".
-
- RECENT file overhaul (see also bin/rsync-over-recentfile.pl)
-
- demerphq wants time series on a regex analyzer. perl versions are in
- regexec.filelog.gz (but they go back till perl @1; so I'll start with
- 27000 I presume), available perls are in
- available-nonthr-debugging-perls.txt. DONE (still need to check the job
- in into the tests repository)
-
- cleanup build_dir by age regardless size and useable by non-interactive
- users.
-
- review Test::Reporter and see how the choice between Mail::Send and
- Net::SMTP is implemented.
-
- review CPAN::Reporter 0.4801.
-
- BBC article about data::dump::streamer? No! Talk to Yves about it!

-
- It is about 'o conf init inactivity_timeout'. Test reproducble with
- 'make testshell-with-protocol'

- 20474 fails

-
- I see: the test was expecting that histfile always sets histsize and
- vice versa; this is no longer expected. Changing the test in 2148. FIXED
-
- * demerphq writes (maybe same bug as RT 28915???):
-
-I was using the bleadperl version of cpan to install a module
-(B::Utils) and here is what I saw. The second ...... DONE line took a
-long time (more than a minute) to execute, makeing me wonder if it had
-crashed, but it finished eventually.
-
-Either File::Spec should be changed to not warn, or CPAN needs to be
-changed not to pass undef to File::Spec::Win32::catdir.

-Ps: this output is what i see immediately after installing blead from
-rsync. I note that it doesnt require the CPAN config process that I

-
-Consider this when installing the CPAN bundle:
-
- Importing PAUSE public key into your GnuPG keychain... gpg: WARNING:
-using insecure memory!
- gpg: please see http://www.gnupg.org/faq.html for more information
- done!
- (You may wish to trust it locally with 'gpg --lsign-key 450F89EC')
- Checking if your kit is complete...
- Looks good
- Writing Makefile for CPAN
-
-SUGGESTION
-
-Not all people use one monolithing GPG keyring, so any automatic
-"imports" beyond user control is bad. Please don't automatically import
-any keys, but sugest the KEYID or present a gpg key fetch command to use.
-
-Here is an example of the typical use of multiple keyrings to separate
-keys according to their use:

- * bartl writes in RT 28946:
-
-On Windows 98, with CPAN.pm 1.9102 (ActivePerl 5.8.8 build 822), the
-CPAN shell dies as soon as it's started up, with the error message:
-
- flock() unimplemented on this platform at
-D:/programs/ActivePerl5.8/lib/CPAN.pm line 1015.
-
-That line looks like this:
-
- while (!flock $fh, LOCK_EX|LOCK_NB) {
-
-(And there's another line pretty much like it on line 3397.)
-
-Ironically, before installing this version, I had done nmake test
-because I was expecting trouble, and all tests passed. So I don't think
-there is any test related to flock. (ActivePerl build 5.8.8 comes with
-this version of CPAN, I've had to downgrade because of this problem.)
-
-Among the versions that are still available on CPAN, the first version
-to contain flock calls is 1.90. The latest development release still has
-these same code lines in those areas, so I don't think the problem has
-been resolved yet.
-
-The problem does not exist on a more modern, NT based, version of
-Windows, like Windows XP.

- * Schwern writes I should read RT 23735
-
- summary: kane and adam have had discussions on some IRC channel about
- how to cooperate and have decided on two environment variables that tell
- the other process the rel2abs of the {Makefile,Build}.PL file and the
- $VERSION. Where are the names? Something with _EXECUTING and _VERSION.
-
- I downloaded CPANPLUS to see what's up. It seems it sets only
- _EXECUTING. This is now also DONE for CPAN.pm.

-CPAN::HandleConfig::home does not handle a return of "undef" from
-File::HomeDir->my_data. In my particular network configuration this
-arises, causing CPAN to incorrectly ignore my ~/.cpan/CPAN/MyConfig.pm
-and try to run CPAN::FirstTime::init. (I'm not sure why it does the
-latter, but that's not part of this bug report.)
-
-The details: CPAN is being invoked in a ssh session into an OS X box,
-which gets its user account information via NIS. My account is
-"foreign" (i.e. not created on the Mac) and File::HomeDir->my_data()
-returns "undef" (which seems appropriate).
-
-Unfortunately, this causes CPAN::HandleConfig::load to ignore my
-existing ~/.cpan/CPAN/MyConfig.pm (as the path to it is now wrong) and
-to try to create a new one. (It should be noted that
-CPAN::FirstTime::init uses a different algorithm to determine where the
-config file goes; it just uses $ENV{HOME}).
-
-The most obvious solution would be to check the return from
-File::HomeDir->my_data and if it is "undef" to fall back to using
-$ENV{HOME} or File::HomeDir->my_home.
-
- * Bug: by adding
-
- CPAN::HandleConfig->load unless $CPAN::Config_loaded++;
-
- in CPAN.pm line 1309 I break the whole test 30shell.t. Why? Recursion?
-
- recurson protection added to load(). DONE.
-
- * Todo: verbosity; tar_verbosity was a start and it had 'none', 'v', and
- 'vv' as options. load_module_verbosity could be 'none' or 'v'. I see no
- sense in a 'vv' option. db_verbosity would cover too many things, maybe
- load_index_verbosity?
-
- We must give all kinds of noise a name and one or more verbosity levels.
-
- That which is not our own noise must be delegated to the owner.
-
- There is a very dirty spot in mydie: it mywarns and then die()s with
- nothing but "\n" as argument.
-
- This dirty spot shall not disturb us while working on verbosity. It is
- not myprint's business at all.
-
- See my mail to David Cantrell to understand what needs be done about
- verbosity.

-
- logs/megainstall.20070{727T0705,730T1247,803T0330,810T2248,812T0825}.out
-
- Somebody injects Apache::Cookie and somebody injects Apache::Request.
- Apache-DBI and Apache-Test have already been installed at this point.
- libapreq is untarred, configure_require hits and before it can resolve
- things correctly configure_require_later is incremented a second time
- and we panic.
-
- The number of modules installed before the bug happens is low:
-
- perl -nle '$S{$1}++ if /Running make for ([\040-\177]+)/; END {
- print map { "$_\n" } grep { $S{$_}==5 } keys %S;
-}' logs/megainstall.20070{727T0705,730T1247,803T0330,810T2248,812T0825}.out|wc -l
-50
-
- Reading the list reveals nothing inspiring/obvious/spectacular. With
- this tar command I can reproduce the state at the moment when the bug happened:
-
- tar -xvz -C / -f ./installed-perls-perl-31701.tar.gz
-
- But I need the command that reproduces it.
-
- I thought of
-
- rm -rf ~/.cpan/build/libapreq-1.33-* ~/.cpan/build/mod_perl-1.30-* ~/.cpan/build/Apache-*
- rm -f /home/src/perl/repoperls/installed-perls/perl/pwRjjSU/perl-5.8.0@31701/lib/site_perl/5.9.5/Apache/DBI.pm /home/src/perl/repoperls/installed-perls/perl/pwRjjSU/perl-5.8.0@31701/lib/site_perl/5.9.5/i686-linux-64int/Apache/Test.pm
-
- and then
-
- cpan> install Apache::DBI Apache::Test Apache::Request
-
- But this installs mod_perl just fine as it should.
-
- With a variant of the one liner (bin/confreq_bug_logs.pl) we see more
- clearly what's common to all these failing runs.

- Either I upgrade to libc6-2.6.1-1 or I ignore the issue. I ask apt-get
