Bug ID: 1385280
Summary: perl-App-Cmd contains a lot of test files which should
not be installed.
Product: Fedora
Version: 24
Component: perl-App-Cmd
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
QA Contact: [email protected]
CC: [email protected], [email protected]
Description of problem:
perl-App-Cmd rpm package contains a lot of test files which should NOT be
installed.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
perl-App-Cmd-0.330-2.fc24.noarch
How reproducible:
Always.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. dnf download perl-App-Cmd
2. rpm -ql -p ./perl-App-Cmd-0.330-2.fc24.noarch.rpm | grep /t/
Actual results:
/usr/share/doc/perl-App-Cmd/t/00-load.t
/usr/share/doc/perl-App-Cmd/t/00-report-prereqs.dd
/usr/share/doc/perl-App-Cmd/t/00-report-prereqs.t
...(lot more test files)...
Expected results:
(empty output)
Additional info:
Many Perl distributions (they call it "distribution" because term "package" is
used for a Perl language construct) contain tests. Perl distribution installer
unpacks distribution, run tests, and installs Perl modules to the user system.
Tests are NOT installed.
perl-App-Cmd rpm package contains a lot of tests, which are installed to the
/usr/share/doc/perl-App-Cmd/ directory. This is a bug. Tests are NOT
documentation, and so, should NOT be installed into /usr/share/doc/. Moreover,
tests should NOT be included into rpm at all, since rpm does not run them
before installing the modules.
