Source: perl Version: 5.24.1-4 Severity: important Hello, with the new zlib > 1.2.9 the testsuite fails, (e.g. you can look at Ubuntu build failures). https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/perl/5.24.1-2
I found the test failures on rt.cpan.org and I applied to Ubuntu the proposed patches: https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=120134 https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=119762 I don't know why they are not applied upstream, nor if they are really backward compatible with the older zlib please consider applying them or upstreaming them (in case cpan is not the upstream place). thanks! Gianfranco
