[Attn. Maintainers] Perl 5.26.1-RC1

[Attn. Maintainers] Perl 5.26.1-RC1

[Achim Gratz]

Things took a bit longer than expected, but the RC1 plus all Cygwin
modules that I maintain or co-maintain are now available.  Please point
setup to http://cygwin.stromeko.net/perl-5.26 as an additional
installation source and it should let you update.  The Perl
distributions are release versions that will be offered directly, perl
itself is marked as test so you need to mark them for installation in
setup for these packages.

After the install you should be able to create test packages with and
for the new Perl.

If you plan to go back from the test installation, you should probably
just have a backup of your Cygwin installation.


Regards,
Achim.

I built biber, both the current and development versions, and 
perl-PAR-Packer.  (I don't maintain the latter, but I'm probably the 
only person who uses it.  I've been regularly building the current 
version for my own use.)

All the prerequisites were available at your site.  Thanks.

Re: [Attn. Maintainers] Perl 5.26.1-RC1

[Achim Gratz]

A few notes for maintainers that I didn't manage to write yesterday
evening:


If building your Perl distribution (or testing) fails, try adding

export PERL_USE_UNSAFE_INC=1

to the cygport file.  Please do not add it unconditionally and check
with each update whether it is still needed.


The following distributions are now integrated into Perl itself with a
new enough version to satisfy all dependencies and will thus be dropped
from Cygwin as separate packages until a newer version of them is
required elsewhere:

perl-XSLoader
perl-Carp
perl-CPAN-Meta
perl-CPAN-Meta-Requirements
perl-File-Temp
perl-Module-Load-Conditional
perl-Pod-Simple
perl-Socket
perl-Test-Simple
perl-Unicode-Collate
perl-Unicode-Normalize
perl-Win32

Since the plan is to keep closer to the upstream Perl versions than
previously, I don't think that need will arise, though.


The following distribution is incompatible with perl-5.26 (it uses
internal functions that have been removed) and will be dropped from
Cygwin -- it hasn't had any dependent packages for some time already, so
no problems arising from that removal are expected.

perl-Data-Alias

Achim.

Thanks for setting this up.  When do you expect this will move into the
distribution as non-test?

I don't know when the upstream release will be, but since no RC2 is
planned currently it porbably happens the upcoming weekend.  Depending
on precisely when that hits the download servers, I'll need one or two
days to build the new Perl plus re-build all distributions with it, for
both arches.  I would then upload again to my site so all other packages
in Cygwin that ship with Perl modules can be re-built and then we'll
have to figure out how to release everything in one go on sourceware.  I
will not be available some days next week and the week after, so that
may delay things a wee bit.

Achim.

Please hold on until I have uploaded the release version sometime later
today.  You need to build with that, not the RC1 if you are going to put
it on the official Cygwin distribution.

Achim,

rebuilding GraphicsMagick with 5.26-1 I noted that the
perl files have not changed location from previous build with RC1:


  $ cygport GraphicsMagick.cygport list |grep perl
   /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.26/x86_64-cygwin-threads/Graphics/Magick.pm
 
/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.26/x86_64-cygwin-threads/auto/Graphics/Magick/Magick.dll
 
/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.26/x86_64-cygwin-threads/auto/Graphics/Magick/autosplit.ix


cygcheck -l perl-Graphics-Magick
/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.26/x86_64-cygwin-threads/auto/Graphics/Magick/autosplit.ix
/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.26/x86_64-cygwin-threads/auto/Graphics/Magick/Magick.dll
/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.26/x86_64-cygwin-threads/Graphics/Magick.pm
/usr/share/man/man3/Graphics.Magick.3pm.gz


but the same cygport instruction
perl_Graphics_Magick_CONTENTS="${PERL_VENDORLIB:1}/ usr/share/man/man3/"

now fails

 >>> perl-Graphics-Magick-1.3.26-3.tar.xz
tar: usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/5.26: Cannot stat: No such file or 
directory
usr/share/man/man3/
usr/share/man/man3/Graphics.Magick.3pm.gz


so PERL_VENDORLIB has changed from
   /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.26
to
   /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/5.26

but nothing is installed on /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/5.26

It is a perl issue or a cygport glitch ?

Marco

The GraphicsMagick stuff should be in PERL_VENDORARCH, since they are 
indeed architecture dependent, so I thiunk this was a latent bug in your 
cyport file.

Re: [Attn. Maintainers] Perl 5.26.1

[Achim Gratz]

The Perl 5.26 repository, still at http://cygwin.stromeko.net/perl-5.26,
has been updated with the release version of Perl 5.26.1 and newly
bootstrapped distribution packages.  I will do one more bootstrap cycle
before I'm ready for release.  This upload now has dummy (obsoletion)
packages for distributions that were formerly separate but now
integrated into Perl:

perl-CPAN-Meta
perl-CPAN-Meta-Requirements
perl-Carp
perl-Module-Load-Conditional
perl-Pod-Simple
perl-Unicode-Collate
perl-Unicode-Normalize
perl-Win32
perl-XSLoader

Another distribution that hasn't been in use on Cygwin for quite some
time already is incompatible with Perl > 5.24 and will be obsoleted:

perl-Data-Alias

One distribution, perl-File-Path, has been patched in-core in
anticipation of upstream doing the same thing in a few months for 5.26.2
in order to fix CVE2017-6512 and is actually at version 2.14 (upstream
was still at 2.12_01).


You should either start over from your backed-up Cygwin installation
from before the tests or clean up and re-install all Perl related
packages by doing

$ rm -fr /usr/share/perl5/5.26 /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/5.26 /usr/share/perl5/site_perl/5.26 /usr/lib/perl5/5.26 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.26 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.26
$ sed -i.bak -re 's/( perl[-_].*-)[0-9.]+-[0-9]+\.tar/\10-0.tar/' /etc/setup/installed.db

so that setup "updates" everything again.

Please build and prepare packages meant for release to Cygwin with this
Perl version, but preferrably do no yet actually upload.  Otherwise, in
the unlikely case of me still finding an error somewhere, you may have
to re-release your package(s).


If there's any Perl distribution in co-maintenance where the
co-maintainer prefers to re-build and upload the package instead of just
using the one I have built, please let me know so I can remove these
before the Cygwin upload.

Achim.

Have you decided yet how you want to handle the upgrade when the time 
comes?  I think last time you asked people to upload a !perl file 
instead of !ready, and then you coordinated with Jon to change all the 
!perl files to !ready at the appropriate time.

The mechanisms on sourceware have substantially changed since then, so I
don't know what's the appropriate solution this time around.  One
possibility could be to simply stop the calm updates until everybody
gives their go and then resume it so it picks up everything in one go.
But again, Jon or Yaakov probably have a better idea.

Doing the same thing again should be fine.

Aside from the obvious perl-* distribution packages, I've checked for
perl content in other packages and found these:

biber:	             BibTeX replacement for users of BibLaTeX (installed binaries and support files)
git-svn:	     Subversion compatibility support for Git version control system
git:	             Distributed version control system
grepmail:	     search mailboxes for mail matching an expression (installed binaries and support files)
irssi:	             Modular text mode IRC client with Perl scripting
nginx-mod_http_perl: Web and mail proxy server (installed binaries and support files)
nginx-mod_http_perl: Web and mail proxy server
po4a:	             Tools for translating various file formats with gettext (installed binaries and support files)
pristine-tar:	     Regenerate pristine tarballs (installed binaries and support files)
sendxmpp:            Commandline XMPP (jabber) utility (installed binaries and support files)
subversion-perl:     A version control system (perl bindings)

They were mostly subsumed in the above sentence.  That these perl-* 
packages are captured inside other packages instead of free-stannding 
like other CPAN modules isn't making a difference to me.

This is using Perl in a plugin, so it never touches the "official" Perl 
directories.  I don't know how to check for uses of the perl DLL in 
package search, so I just looked for installations into the vendor 
library directories.

I don't find that even now that you said it... embedded perl?

Now that you mention it, I seem to remmeber it has an embedded perl

Installs under /usr/share/texinfo and seems to use captive Perl 
distributions, maybe we should change that (i.e. move perl-libintl-perl, 
perl-Text-Unidecode etc. to their own CPAN derived package).

Plugin/embedded.

We seem to have more packages using embedded perl or plugins than I thought.

More importantly, it installs compiled XS modules into /usr/lib/texinfo.

I need to have a look on what the main GNU/Linux distributions are doing
with this.  WOuld it be possible to cleanly excise those as dependent
packages?

It's the same on Debian:

   https://packages.debian.org/stretch/amd64/texinfo/filelist

I haven't checked any other.

I could certainly do that, but I wouldn't want to unless there's a 
GNU/Linux model to follow.  I don't think Cygwin should use special 
packaging that no one else uses.

Debian/Ubuntu have libintl{-,-xs-}perl packages but not as texinfo dependencies.

Looks like SuSE splits into texinfo / makeinfo /info paclages, but
otherwise seems to handle these the same.  It does split out
perl-text-Unidecode and externalizes it in the configury, though.

Certainly not, I am still a bit surprised at that way of installing
things, though.

It might really just complain that it can't get a rootDSE, but you could
try to run the build/test with PERL_USE_UNSAFE_INC=1 just in case.

It embeds perl and keeps all its files under
/usr/lib/znc/; I'll just rebuild it with the updated
perl package. Does it needs to be uploaded together with new perl?

Yaakov,

Have you also rebuilt your perl-Tk* packages?  If so, can you make them 
available somewhere?  I need them for the build of perl-PAR-Packer.

Thanks.

Well blimey, I just did find an error.  :-(

The noarch vendor_perl is in the wrong directory.  I'm going to build
a new Perl with the correct @INC and then all the packages again.  With
luck I should manage to do that before leaving tomorrow.

Re: [Attn. Maintainers] Perl 5.26.1

[Achim Gratz]

The Perl 5.26 repository, still at http://cygwin.stromeko.net/perl-5.26,
has been updated with the release version of Perl 5.26.1 that has the
vendor_perl directories shifted to the correct place.  You need to
re-install perl and all perl_* packages manually.  If you're in a pinch
and can#t wait until I have rebuilt the whole set of distributions,
please move the directories to their correct place:

$ mv /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/5.26/          
$ mkdir -p /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.26
$ mv /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/5.26/x86_64-cygwin-threads/ /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.26

Please note that this is only a temporary fix as the old path may have
leaked into the installed files in some cases.  I'm starting the build
now, it should be finished tomorrow morning.  Sorry for any
inconvenience caused by this late change.

This means that anyone who has already built noarch Perl module packages
needs to rebuild them again, right?

Re: [Attn. Maintainers] Perl 5.26.1 (prepare for release)

[Achim Gratz]

The Perl 5.26 repository, still at http://cygwin.stromeko.net/perl-5.26,
has been updated (again due to an error in module search path) with the
prospective release version of Perl 5.26.1 and newly bootstrapped
distribution packages.  This upload now has dummy (obsoletion) packages
for distributions that were formerly imported from CPAN but now use
those built-in to Perl:

perl-CPAN-Meta
perl-CPAN-Meta-Requirements
perl-Carp
perl-Config-Perl-V
perl-Module-Load-Conditional
perl-Pod-Simple
perl-Unicode-Collate
perl-Unicode-Normalize
perl-Win32
perl-XSLoader

Another distribution that hasn't been in use on Cygwin for quite some
time already is incompatible with Perl > 5.24 and will be obsoleted:

perl-Data-Alias

One distribution, perl-File-Path, has been patched in-core in
anticipation of upstream doing the same thing in a few months for 5.26.2
in order to fix CVE2017-6512 and is actually at version 2.14 (upstream
was still at 2.12_01).


You should either start over from your backed-up Cygwin installation
from before any previous tests or clean up and re-install all Perl
related packages by doing

$ rm -fr /usr/{share,lib}/perl5/{,vendor_perl/,site_perl/}
$ sed -i.bak -re 's/( perl[-_]?.*-)[0-9.]+-[0-9]+\.tar/\10-0.tar/' /etc/setup/installed.db

so that setup "updates" everything to do with Perl again.

Please build and prepare packages meant for release to Cygwin only with
this latest Perl version, but preferrably do no yet actually upload.
Otherwise, in the unlikely case of me still finding an error somewhere,
you may have to re-release your package(s).


Again the reminder that the following packages will have to be re-built since they
install perl modules:

biber:	             BibTeX replacement for users of BibLaTeX (installed binaries and support files)
git-svn:	     Subversion compatibility support for Git version control system
git:	             Distributed version control system
grepmail:	     search mailboxes for mail matching an expression (installed binaries and support files)
irssi:	             Modular text mode IRC client with Perl scripting
nginx-mod_http_perl: Web and mail proxy server (installed binaries and support files)
nginx-mod_http_perl: Web and mail proxy server
po4a:	             Tools for translating various file formats with gettext (installed binaries and support files)
pristine-tar:	     Regenerate pristine tarballs (installed binaries and support files)
sendxmpp:            Commandline XMPP (jabber) utility (installed binaries and support files)
subversion-perl:     A version control system (perl bindings)


If there's any Perl distribution in co-maintenance where the
co-maintainer prefers to re-build and upload the package instead of just
using the one I have built, please let me know so I can remove these
before the Cygwin upload.  The current plan is that when each maintainer
has ready with the package rebuild, we will coordinate an upload so that
all packages can be released at the same time.  Tentatively we would
like to do that some time in CW41, so if that doesn't work for you,
please speak up.

Achim.

Re: [Attn. Maintainers] Perl 5.26.1 (release is imminent)

I've just uploaded the files for the update of Perl to version 5.26 to
sourceware.  Unfortunatley only a single other package has been staged
there (znc), so we need to wait for the rest of the maintainers to do
their uploads.

Please upload your packages to sourceware _without_ the !ready cookies
(i.e. don't use cygport upload) and instead place !perl cookies.  This
way the staged uploads can all be activated at the same time so that no
inconsistent intermediate state gets published.

Please post a not here on this list as well when your upload is staged.

Again the reminder that the following packages will have to be re-built
since they install perl modules:

biber:	             BibTeX replacement for users of BibLaTeX (installed binaries and support files)

Everything else is in place now, if you could take care of however you

No, this is a calm problem. It (now) checks that curr: and prev: have 
the chronological ordering one would naturally expect.

Since subversion is special in that prev: is being used for 1.8, which 
could be built before or after 1.9, I've added the subversion packages 
to the list of exclusions for this rule.

Did this somehow cause all maintainers to receive email about 
subversion?  I just received a package upload report that contained what 
I expected about my own packages, but which also contained a report

Adam, git will break if it doesn't get rebuilt and uploaded together
with the 5.26 upgrade.  How soon can you rebuild it with Achim's repo?

yes it'd be nice if git could be updated in sync also.  Adam?

All staged packages have now been moved into the distribution.  Thank
you all for helping make this a smooth upgrade.

care of anything that needed to be done on sourceware.
