Description Peter Volkov (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-08-10 08:04:47 UTC
New version is available, please bump. I've opened this bug as I don't see this package mentioned here:

Comment 1 Torsten Veller (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-08-10 08:21:51 UTC
Because I masked them:
| # Only test changes, which we don't run
| =dev-perl/IO-Socket-INET6-2.64
| =dev-perl/IO-Socket-INET6-2.65

http://search.cpan.org/diff?from=IO-Socket-INET6-2.63&to=IO-Socket-INET6-2.65&w=1

Is there a package that has wrong dependencies ie it wants >=2.65?
Comment 2 Peter Volkov (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-08-12 09:29:07 UTC
Err, I thought I've answered here but looks like internet swallowed my post somewhere. So...

I was searching a solution for bug 331161. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=437681 suggests that some problem comes from dev-perl/IO-Socket-INET6 and 2.64 should fix it. (and BTW some similar problem was fixed in dev-perl/Net-DNS). In any case, I don't understand reason "# Only test changes, which we don't run". This sentence explains nothing. So I'm curious, why where they masked? Why you avoid bump?

Its quite simple really, there is no point providing  2.64 and 2.65 , because for anyone who is NOT running tests ( the default audience ), both these versions are identical to 2.63. ( As demonstrated by the linked diff )

Therefore, bumping it is a waste of time.

Ah, I see. Thank you. Then probably some other changes redhat added. I'll check later their packages.
Comment 5 Torsten Veller (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-08-15 13:14:47 UTC
Can we close this bug now?
Comment 6 Peter Volkov (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-08-16 11:34:09 UTC
Ok, let's do it for now. Although I'd bumped package to avoid further questions. But this is up to you.
