In my case taint test always fail on all platforms I tried to install on,
ubuntu and freeBSD
I don't remember if that was the same with windows
I don't think I've ever seen a report of it having failed on Windows -
though I suppose it may be possible to set things up on Windows so that the
failure happens.
but I started to use force install every time I update or install Inline
as a habit :)
That's probably another reason we should turn off testing of t/08taint.t.
One day something more important than t/08taint.t might also fail and you
won't notice ... and Inline will still be installed anyway. (I guess if it's
"something important" you'll *eventually* discover the failure ;-)
I don't know of anyone that wants this taint handling fixed so that they can
actually make use of it. AFAICT people want it fixed only so that they can
avoid using force when installing Inline with any of the "cpan" tools.
So I think I *will* turn t/08taint.t testing off unless $ENV{INLINE_TT_ON}
is set ... and see what results/reactions that produces.
I should never have added t/08taint.t in the first place. I should have just
left the taint handling in its completely broken state. (No-one would ever
have known.)
Cheers,
