Don't test on Ubuntu 14.04

philwo commented 5 years ago

Ubuntu 14.04 is about to be end-of-life and Bazel CI will stop supporting it shortly afterwards.

Any idea why this fails on Ubuntu 18.04?

No response from project maintainers in weeks. I'm using my admin permissions to merge this.

Oops, my apologies, @philwo! I got so distracted with why this doesn't work on Ubuntu 18.04 (which I didn't figure out yet), that I didn't notice that this PR was about removing Ubuntu 14.04 and ready to go.

Oh, no worries 😊 Feel free to add the ubuntu1804 config when you figure out what's up!

As mentioned here https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_perl/pull/11#issuecomment-568552453 , the current directory (".") has been removed from @INC in version >= 5.26 due to security issues. Thus the current implementation of the rules is incompatible in general with Ubuntu 18.04 and other distress using a newer version of perl as far as I can tell.
