Hi Alceu,

I think that

    useithreads: undef

should work, using exactly the string which is returned by

    perl -V:useithreads


Actually, looking at this distropref file https://github.com/eserte/srezic-cpan-distroprefs/blob/8c3ae5d7b4071f9639ccfcea4f44764c2699e27e/Devel-CallParser.yml#L5 it seems that the value is interepreted as a regexp, so you want to anchor it with ^ and $ for extra safety.

I'm afraid that neither the options you proposed: I tried both and the result is the same: Kwalify doesn't complain anymore but the distribution is not skipped.

On the other hand, using:

    useithreads: null

Generates the opposite outcome.

Not sure how Kwalify works (both Ruby's and Perl's implementation from it), but the direct translation from Perl's undef would be null in YAML.

Hi Alceu,

Kwalify is just a schema for validating data structures and it does not do any parsing or matching using the distroprefs data. The latter is done by CPAN::Distroprefs.

That said, I tried "useithreads: undef" and it did not work. So it looks like the matching is not done against what is displayed in "perl -V" (in this case the string "undef"), but what is in the Config data structure (the value undef).

However, the distroprefs code only does regexp matches against the stringified values, so to match the stringified undef (the empty string) one has to use '^$'. Below is a distroprefs file just for demonstration purposes, and it works on my system.

Regards, Slaven
