Description i.Dark_Templar 2017-04-17 14:21:23 UTC

Upgrade of perl triggers rebuilds of some of packages depending on it, but it didn't trigger rebuild of spamassassin while it should.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. downgrade to dev-lang/perl-5.22.3_rc4
2. emerge =mail-filter/spamassassin-3.4.1-r8
3. upgrade to dev-lang/perl-5.24.1-r1

Actual Results:  
mail-filter/spamassassin rebuild is not triggered. perl-cleaner shows it as leftover files.

Expected Results:  
mail-filter/spamassassin should be rebuilt automatically

# perl-cleaner --leftovers    

 * The following files remain. These were either installed by hand
 * or edited.

 *     /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/5.22.3/spamassassin-run.pod
 *     /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/5.22.3/Mail/SpamAssassin.pm
 *     /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/5.22.3/Mail/SpamAssassin/PerMsgLearner.pm
... A LOT OF LINES SKIPPED ...
 *     /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/5.22.3/Mail/SpamAssassin/MailingList.pm
 *     /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/5.22.3/x86_64-linux/auto/Mail/SpamAssassin/.packlist
 *     /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/5.22.3/XML/SAX/ParserDetails.ini  : known, can be deleted

Hey perl team.. is this the right thing to do?

Thanks, I've fixed this in -r11.

    mail-filter/spamassassin: new revision fixing bugs 590338 and 615856.

    The first fix in this revision adds a slot-operator dependency on
    dev-lang/perl. This should force SpamAssassin to rebuild in response
    to future major upgrades of perl (bug 615856).

    The second fix includes a backported patch to support newer versions
    of dev-perl/Net-DNS. This should avoid the problems experienced with
    the URIDNSBL plugin (bug 590338).
