Bugzilla Bug 175941

I just installed app-text/gnopaster-0.0.6 on my ~x86 system. When I now try to
run /usr/bin/gnopaster, I get the following error message:

askwar@winnb000488 /Gentoo/Portage/tree $ gnopaster
Can't locate ConfigReader/Simple.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /etc/perl

/usr/local/lib/site_perl .) at /usr/bin/gnopaster line 71.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/bin/gnopaster line 71.

dev-perl/Config-Simple-4.58 got installed as a dependency of gnopaster in the
same emerge run. And I also just re-installed Config-Simple, which gives me the
same error message.

Either there's something wrong with gnopaster, or Config-Simple doesn't install
correctly, or there's something peculiar about my system.

That's because of naming mismatch of perl module between gentoo and gnopaster.
Try replacing line 71 of /usr/bin/gnopaster:

use ConfigReader::Simple;

with:

use Config::Simple;

and tell me if it works for you.

gnopaster after s/ConfigReader::/Config::/

I can now start gnopaster, but cannot paste:

askwar@winnb000488 ~ $ gnopaster

Doing a simple s/ConfigReader::/Config::/ in /usr/bin/gnopaster did not help -
maybe I replaced too much...

Attached is the broken perl script /usr/bin/gnopaster, after I did this
replacement.

it shows that there is no exists.al, instead we have EXISTS.al, I tried to
replace:

if(!$config->exists("Url") || !$config->exists("ModRewrite")) {

with

if(!$config->EXISTS("Url") || !$config->EXISTS("ModRewrite")) {

in line 183 but that drives us to another problem:

# gnopaster
Copy data you want to paste
^d paste - ^c cancels

Testing
'_SYNTAX' is not defined at blib/lib/Config/Simple.pm (autosplit into
blib/lib/auto/Config/Simple/vars.al) line 1324, <STDIN> line 1.

I think we need a perl guy in here. Anyone?

There is a error in the mirrored gnopaster.pl.gz the mirrored one is one that
never should  been released as far as I know

I see. After downloading the correct version it works fine. However, it lacks
config file checking. If there is no $HOME/.gnopasterrc I get:

$ perl gnopaster-0.0.6.pl
Copy data you want to paste
^d paste - ^c cancels

Testing
Can't call method "param" on an undefined value at gnopaster-0.0.6.pl line 180,
<STDIN> line 1.

but that's upstream's job :) Fixed in CVS. I also added ~ppc and ~sparc
keywords. Thanks!

The problem with the .gnopasterrc file is fixed on new version 0.0.7 ;)

In CVS, thanks!

Jurek's jobs a perfect!
Thank you!
