Dear Perl Package Maintainers, Dear Russ, > What led up to the situation? Trying to make my package "wml" building reproducibly: https://reproducible.debian.net/rb-pkg/wml.html > What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or > ineffective)? wml uses pod2man to generate its man pages. > What was the outcome of this action? Calling "man wml" on Jessie or Sid shows the following line as first line of the man page: | IO::FILE=IO(0XE7C2F0)(1) EN Tools IO::FILE=IO(0XE7C2F0)(1) The source code of the man page shows: | 135 .IX Title "IO::FILE=IO(0XE7C2F0) 1" | 136 .TH IO::FILE=IO(0XE7C2F0) 1 "2014-10-12" "EN Tools" "EN Tools" > What outcome did you expect instead? Not having stringified object references in the man page's title. Some context information: The man pages are build by using pod2man inside a pipe. From wml_frontend/Makefile.in: | 69 .src.1: | 70 cp $< $*.pod | 71 cat $*.pod | sed -e 's|\@WML_VERSION\@|$(WML_VERSION)|g' | \ | 72 pod2man --section=1 --center="EN Tools" --release="EN Tools" > $@ | 73 rm -f $*.pod Minimal example to reproduce: | $ echo '=pod' | pod2man | fgrep IO::FILE | .IX Title "IO::FILE=IO(0X23BF810) 1" | .TH IO::FILE=IO(0X23BF810) 1 "2015-02-08" "perl v5.20.1" "User Contributed Perl Documentation" According to pod2man(1) this kind of usage is supported. -- System Information: Debian Release: 8.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (909, 'testing'), (500, 'testing-updates'), (500, 'testing-proposed-updates'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: sysvinit (via /sbin/init) Versions of packages perl depends on: ii dpkg 1.17.23 ii libbz2-1.0 1.0.6-7+b2 ii libc6 2.19-13 ii libdb5.3 5.3.28-7~deb8u2 ii libgdbm3 1.8.3-13.1 ii perl-base 5.20.1-5 ii perl-modules 5.20.1-5 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.8.dfsg-2+b1 Versions of packages perl recommends: ii netbase 5.3 ii rename 0.20-3 Versions of packages perl suggests: ii libterm-readline-gnu-perl 1.24-2+b1 ii libterm-readline-perl-perl 1.0303-1 ii make 4.0-8.1 ii perl-doc 5.20.1-5 -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
