libio-socket-ssl-perl: FTBFS: Test failures

Hello Daniel,

I just created a new chroot using pbuilder and I see that netbase is
installed by default. Why isn't it in your chroot?

Anyway, the package producing the warning is IO::Socket which calls
getprotobyname, a perl builtin, which returns undef is netbase isn't
installed. So I think perl or at least IO::Socket should depend on it,
shoudn't it?

Regards,
Flo

BOFH excuse #46:
waste water tank overflowed onto computer

Hello,

you haven't replied to my mail for a while, so I asked some people on
#debian-mentors if they can reproduce the bug. They couldn't. So as
3 persons with a newly created pbuilder chroot can't reproduce it I
close this bug now. Feel free to reopen it if I missed something.

Regards,
Flo

Hi,

this bug (libio-socket-ssl-perl FTBFS due to /etc/protocols missing
from a pbuilder chroot) can be reproduced in a newly created chroot of
a 'buildd' or 'minimal' flavour:

pbuilder create --debootstrapopts --flavour=buildd [...]

These chroots don't contain netbase, because it's neither essential nor
build-essential, and not a dependency of them either. Thus it should be
in Build-Depends.

I suppose another proper fix would be for perl-base to depend on
netbase, as its IO::Socket::INET needs /etc/protocols for the default
value of 'proto'. OTOH, people could use IO::Socket::INET without
netbase by explicitly supplying the protocol by number...

I'm CCing the 2-year old perl bug #185244 about this.

(Another missing build-dependency for libio-socket-ssl-perl
seems to be makedev, which is needed for /dev/random but
is missing from the minimal and buildd chroots too.)

Cheers,

Looking into this for a potiential NMU, I found adding netbase was not
sufficient. It appears that this package is not compatable with the
current perl in unstable.

Yes. I'm already aware of that. It's caused by either openssl or
libnet-ssleay-perl, which I also maintain in Debian and upstream.

libnet-ssleay-perl linked against openssl 0.9.7 works fine. Linked
against 0.9.8 it breaks with the above messages. I tried to debug it a
but and turned tracing in Net::SSLeay on. The error message you'll get
is pretty confusing and you can find it in various places on the net as
an unresolved issue with openssl.

The problem has been caused by openssl and should be fixed with the next
upload tomorrow. I'll upload a new libio-socket-ssl-perl version after
the new openssl upload is in sid.
