This is a bug report for perl from mstevens@wildcat.imaginet.co.uk, generated with the help of perlbug 1.28 running under perl v5.6.0.
[Please enter your report here]
The latest CPAN File::Spec (0.8) fails to pass it's own tests on 5.004_04:
CPAN.pm: Going to build R/RB/RBS/File-Spec-0.8.tar.gz
t/filespec.t 2 512 ?? ?? % ?? Failed 1/2 test scripts, 50.00% okay. 0/1 subtests failed, 100.00% okay. make: *** [test_dynamic] Error 2 /usr/bin/make test -- NOT OK Running make install make test had returned bad status, won't install without force
The following patch at least makes the code syntactically correct, but it still fails it's tests under 5.004_04 even with these patches applied:
