Bugzilla Bug 68570

We need to move forward with marking dev-perl/module-build stable. This is a
(relatively) new module that is being used by a growing number of perl modules
to pre-build the Makefile.PL used for installing a module. We currently have
30+ modules that require this module for building, and would like to see it
handled in the eclass rather than on a case by case basis. But to do this, we
need it unmasked for each arch first :) Thanks for your help,

Mike

hppa stable

Mike, what's a good way to test that this set of ebuilds (module-build required
module-info, something with parsecs, Archive-Tar and something else, and maybe
something else again).   Do you have test cases that we can run to verify that
things are running correctly? (this is for ppc, btw).

SRC_TEST="do" added to the 0.25 ebuild. Sorry 'bout that,

mike

huh? by test cases, I meant, perl modules that use this new build system so
that we can verify it..

Misunderstood. At present (list is growing):

*** Bug 74494 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

Eclass fix forthcoming - was waiting on some feedback for it

Figures I'm ready to commit to my commit (heh) and another arch joins the batch
:) 

ppc64 - please confirm and mark stable a version of module-build so we can make
a change to the eclass for perl modules. In december nigoro marked 0.25 as
~ppc64. Thanks!

dev-perl/module-build-0.25 is now stable on ppc64.

Folks, sorry you were missed in my last call out for testing. Can you please
test this module and mark one stable? Thank you!!!

vapier - just realized you are in all of these arch's :) Need to add sh to this
list, but without an alias (at least one bugs.g.o recognizes) can you do sh as
well? 

Sorry, does not work here...

Yeah, fixing this dep now (it really isn't CBuilder but ParseXS). Testing the
fixed dep and posting in a few. One of those things where when I scanned the
tree I didn't come across your keywords in any relevant packages that also
dep'd module-build, then discovered after going ahead with the eclass fix that
a few packages had started adopting it - and discovered your arch's weren't
key'ed. Unfortunately all of this follows a silly dep loop becaue parsexs
wanted to be fancy. will post soon as this loop is fixed.

The short of it is: 

* module-build *can* use extutils-parsexs
* new versions of extutils-parsexs now ship with a Build.PL
* new eclass detects existence of Build.PL and attempts to work with it
* Loop gets generated of dep chain

So for the time being I've removed the direct dependancy on extutils-parsexs, which was optional anyway. I will look into ways of bootstrapping module-build later so that we can avoid this loopage.

Any word on this arm/ia64/s390(/sh)?

should be set now

All set, moudule-build should be invokable by anyone now. Thanks all!
