Package: perl Version: 5.14.2-7 Forwarded: https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=28632
As noted in #657853, Makefile.PL command line arguments like OPTIMIZE and LD aren't passed down to recursive invocations when there are Makefile.PL files in subdirectories. This is hindering the adoption of hardening build flags. The libimager-perl package is an example. The bug is probably somewhere around eval_in_x(), which has { package main; do './Makefile.PL'; }; Given the silence in the upstream bug, I think we should try and fix this for Debian and pass the patch upstream. -- Niko Tyni nt...@debian.org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
