new perl package needs newer versions of dependancies.
by Christopher McCrory 05 Oct '09

05 Oct '09

Hello... I am trying to add a new perl Yahoo-Marketing module package to fedora/epel, https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=524698. One of the dependencies is for perl-Test-Class. The current fedora package requires newer versions of several existing modules. from koji scratch build: https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/getfile?taskID=1693325&name=build.log + /usr/bin/perl Build.PL installdirs=vendor - ERROR: Test::More (0.62) is installed, but we need version >= 0.78 - ERROR: perl (5.008008) is installed, but we need version >= 5.6001 - ERROR: Test::Builder (0.32) is installed, but we need version >= 0.78 - ERROR: Test::Simple (0.62) is installed, but we need version >= 0.78 ERRORS/WARNINGS FOUND IN PREREQUISITES. You may wish to install the versions of the modules indicated above before proceeding with this installation Checking whether your kit is complete... Looks good Checking prerequisites... Creating new 'Build' script for 'Test-Class' version '0.31' What is the general consensus on updating EPEL perl modules as requirements for other perl modules? Yes? maybe? never? maintainers choice? -- Christopher McCrory "The guy that keeps the servers running" chrismcc(a)pricegrabber.com http://www.pricegrabber.com Let's face it, there's no Hollow Earth, no robots, and no 'mute rays.' And even if there were, waxed paper is no defense. I tried it. Only tinfoil works.

Some process went nuts and now some of the EPEL dirs are missing. We're working on getting them back quickly and trying to figure out what went wrong. Sorry for the confusion. -Mike

EL-5 comps versus FEL collection
by Chitlesh GOORAH 01 Oct '09

01 Oct '09

Hello there, On Fedora, we have a comps group 'electronic-lab' which facilitates the users' life to install FEL (Fedora Electronic Lab) collection: # yum groupinstall 'Electronic Lab' I wish to have a similar comps group for the EPEL-5 branch. Of course, not all packages under the FEL collection are in EPEL-5 branch due to compatibility reasons. If you are interested to follow FEL packages found in Fedora branches and EPEL-5 branch please visit * For detailed list with respective versions and build dates: http://chitlesh.fedorapeople.org/FEL/list.html * FEL-12 Release Notes (EPEL-5 Repository Section) http://chitlesh.fedorapeople.org/papers/FEL12ReleaseNotes.pdf We already have 42 packages of the FEL collections in EPEL-5 repository. I really want to extend FEL support for the EL distributions as our userbase is growing and requesting long term support. Kind Regards, Chitlesh Goorah
