[gentoo-dev] perl-module.eclass -- review

[Torsten Veller]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 988 bytes --]

Please review the attached perl-module.eclass.
Patch linked below.

Changes (#239510):
~~~~~~~
- EAPI 2 support
- default license
- reduced EXPORT_FUNCTIONS for EAPI=2
- HOMEPAGE changed
- LDFLAGS support
- quoting
- removes updatepod()
- removes .packlist files
- removes empty *.bs files
- removed BUILDER_VER stuff


IDEAS
~~~~~
- remove esvn_clean
- cache perlinfo calls


TODO (no showstopper)
~~~~
- still no documentation
- perl-app.eclass not done


After that perl-module_src_prep calls in ebuilds should be updated
(perl-module_src_configure) or removed:
|    app-pda/pilot-link
|    dev-perl/GDTextUtil
|    dev-tex/html2latex
|    kde-base/dcopperl
|    mail-filter/spamassassin
|    sci-libs/gdal
|    sci-libs/udunit

Ebuilds with a local perl-module_src_prep function should be fixed too

|    dev-perl/HTML-Mason

As I've not seen any ebuild doing the replacement in line 156,

Maybe this is just me, but I prefer to reserve '*' cases for the 
fallback when I don't understand what I'm given.

I'm curious how portable the find () construct is. Do you know?

Could you just use dosed here?

Are you going to include the changes from Bug 254980 so that s390 can
build their stages properly?

Specifically, going to EAPI2 and adding DEPEND="dev-lang/perl[!build]"
to the eclass.

As this is a general problem we should move it out of this thread.
I also think this should have been discussed months ago.

http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/000095399/utilities/find.html

The brackets are no problem.
But -mindepth and -delete are not in the specs:

| The -mindepth and -maxdepth options are GNU extensions that should be
| avoided if possible.                             (from devmanual.g.o)
Well, even the portage ebuild uses -mindepth. So should I replace it?

| The `-delete' action was introduced by the BSD family of operating
| systems                                         (from `info find`)
and is also used several times in the tree.

I guess you mean the default expression?

dosed defaults to "s:${D}::g"
$D is supposed to end with a trailing slash.
-> is the path still absolute?

Strange at least.


BTW: After I looked up the devmanual part about "find" above, I wonder:
| find "${S}" -type f | while read f ; do
| [...]
| for f in $(find "${S}" -type f) ; do
| [...]
| Warning
| In both cases, files with weird characters or spaces in their names may
| cause serious problems. 

Is there still a problem in the snippet above and is the following better
(if we assume that packages contain files with sane names)?

pushd "${D}" > /dev/null
for f in $(find . -type f -not -name '*.so' ) ; do
    if file "${f}" | grep -q -i " text" ; then
        sed -i -e "s:${D}:/:g" "${f}" || die
    fi
done
popd > /dev/null

Maybe i need some coffee.

It was established well over a year ago that find in the ebuild environment 
must be GNU find. Using portable find is not worth the pain.

dosed needs to die.

The while loop breaks with leading or trailing spaces in the path. If the 
spaces are anywhere else in the path it works. The for loop breaks with spaces 
regardless of where they are. And you can of course come up with weird 
characters that break them both.

If you really want to do better use:

  find "${S}" -print0 | while read -rd '' f; do
      if file "${f}" ...
  done

You also really should provide proper die messages.

Currently the eclass doesn't set any dependencies.
If it is used the ebuild has to depend on perl if needed.


I see the following options:

1) Don't add DEPEND to the eclass.
   So if a package is used for stage-building we have to raise EAPI and
   depend on dev-lang/perl[-build] in the ebuild.

   The part I don't understand in the bug above is:
   Does adding dev-lang/perl[-build] automagically reinstall
   perl during stage-building
   (here portage stops and complains).


2) Add DEPEND conditionally to the eclass.
   To give ebuilds the chance to inherit perl-module.eclass
   (and currently also perl-app.eclass) and support perl conditionally,
   we have to add another global variable to check it.

   (Checking CATEGORY and perl? probably could be added additonally)


3) Add DEPEND.
   Always depend on dev-lang/perl and 
   if EAPI=2 then depend on dev-lang/perl[-build]


Comments?

Having not spent a lot of time thinking about this, I'm guessing the use 
case of concern is packages that have an optional perl module always 
pulling in dev-lang/perl. This would apparently be relevant on an 
embedded system that lacked perl but required a package with an optional 
perl module. To handle that miniscule use case, I'd tend to go with a 
conditional variable (GENTOO_PERL="no"?) that defaults to "yes".

Yes. Portage will rebuild Perl with USE=-build.

Perl modules by definition need dev-lang/perl installed to build
(Makefile.PL is written in Perl).

How many Perl modules can be installed with a Perl that is built with
USE=build?

Yes, this would be needed in any case, similar to how it's done for
stuff that had optional X dependencies.

Because it's utterly pointless and exists only for legacy reasons. Few 
packages use it anyway.

Next version. I want to commit it tomorrow.

For EAPI=2 it checks GENTOO_DEPEND_ON_PERL and depends on
dev-lang/perl[-build] unless GENTOO_DEPEND_ON_PERL is set and not "yes".

Thanks

I did a quick check to look at the data supporting your point and found 
120 packages using it. I guess that qualifies as "few" when compared to 
the whole tree.

Doing a bit of a cross thread thing here:

How about getting rid of dosed in EAPI=3 ? Sounds like the perfect time 
to do it.
