Bug 418479 – =dev-perl/libintl-perl-1.200.0 fails tests

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Kent Fredric (IRC: kent\n) (RETIRED) 2012-06-01 06:26:35 UTC]

Known upstream bug. 

If you have any de_ locales, you must also have de_AT or tests will fail. 

Present work-arounds:

 1. remove all de_ locales
 2. add "de_AT ISO-8859-15" to /etc/locales.gen and run locale-gen
 3. disable tests. 

possibly, the ebuild could be tweaked as such 

src_test {
   if grep -q "de_" <( locale -a ); then
     if grep -q "de_AT" <( locale -a ); then
        perl-module_src_test;
     else
        ewarn "Skipping tests, known broken with de_ and without de_AT";
        # die here maybe? 
     fi;
   else 
        perl-module_src_test;
   fi;
}

Created attachment 315607 [details]
/var/log/portage/dev-perl:libintl-perl-1.200.0:20120617-155955.log.gz

I do not have de_AT set and get the failed test at an almost stable x86 Gentoo as seen attached.
