Hi all, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
due to having somewhat too many Gentoo projects and not enough time at |
| 4 |
the moment, I'd like to ask for help with perl-cleaner here. |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
It is in most cases not necessary anymore, and I personally have not |
| 7 |
used it for ages, since the automated rebuilds via subslots make it |
| 8 |
obsolete. Still... |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
* The change in path structure with Perl 5.32 (from, e.g., /usr/lib64 |
| 11 |
perl5/5.30.3 to /usr/lib64/perl5/5.32) broke the rebuild functionality |
| 12 |
[1] |
| 13 |
* There are issues with the 17.1 profiles [2] |
| 14 |
* There are several unrelated bugs and github issues. |
| 15 |
* Testing is nontrivial since you basically need a snapshotted |
| 16 |
install, where you can roll back a Perl upgrade. |
| 17 |
* The code is, well, horrible. [3] |

In any case, please have a look and file bugs and even better patches |
| 20 |
and/or pull-requests... |

If no help materializes, my plan is to lobotomize perl-cleaner so it |
| 25 |
only cleans out "known leftover files" and otherwise recommends a |
| 26 |
portage command to rebuild all reverse dependencies of dev-lang/perl. |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
Unfortunately this kind of blocks Perl 5.32 stable. |
