Description John Wilcock 2010-10-07 06:32:58 UTC

Spamassassin ebuild correctly depends on dev-perl/IO-Socket-INET6 if the ipv6 USE flag is set. However, the latest stable version of the latter is *ancient* and results in runtime warnings. Upgrading to dev-perl/IO-Socket-INET6-2.63 solves the problem.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge spamassassin with USE ipv6
2. sa-update (mandatory post-installation step)

Actual Results:
Runtime warnings:
Constant subroutine IO::Socket::INET6::AF_INET6 redefined at /usr/lib64/perl5/5.12.2/Exporter.pm line 64.
at /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/5.12.2/IO/Socket/INET6.pm line 16
Prototype mismatch: sub IO::Socket::INET6::AF_INET6 () vs none at /usr/lib64/perl5/5.12.2/Exporter.pm line 64.
at /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/5.12.2/IO/Socket/INET6.pm line 16
Constant subroutine IO::Socket::INET6::PF_INET6 redefined at /usr/lib64/perl5/5.12.2/Exporter.pm line 64.
at /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/5.12.2/IO/Socket/INET6.pm line 16
Prototype mismatch: sub IO::Socket::INET6::PF_INET6 () vs none at /usr/lib64/perl5/5.12.2/Exporter.pm line 64.
at /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/5.12.2/IO/Socket/INET6.pm line 16

Expected Results:
Should run without warnings.

Spamassassin does not specify a required minimum version for this module, but in correspondence on the spamassassin users' list one of the devs suggest that the minimum version should be 2.62. The gentoo tree only has 2.61 and 2.63, so I'd suggest >=2.63 as a minimum. This will of course mean that 2.63 needs to be stabilised.
