Please stabilize dev-perl/Ace-1.92.

[Comment 1 Torsten Veller (RETIRED) 2009-05-12 21:00:49 UTC]

Stable on x86. Restrict (online) tests

Perhaps I'm overlooking something, but whenever I try to use Ace or run one of its examples from the tarball it errors out with "Module Ace::RPC not loaded".

Relevant code from Ace.pm:

  if ($path) { # local database
    $server_type = 'Ace::Local';
  } else { # either RPC or socket server
    $host      ||= 'localhost';
    $user      ||= $u || '';
    $path      ||= $p || '';
    $port        ||= $server_type eq 'Ace::SocketServer' ? DEFAULT_SOCKET : DEFAULT_PORT;
    $query_timeout = 120 unless defined $query_timeout;
    $server_type ||= 'Ace::SocketServer' if $port <  100000;
    $server_type ||= 'Ace::RPC'          if $port >= 100000;
  }

Ace/SocketServer.pm is included, but Ace::RPC is not. So it will crash with any test where port is >= 100000. Looks like an upstream bug.
