I've installed rakudo on my PC with Ubuntu AMD64. Everything was OK, BUT later I began to configure Perl and received ERROR in the terminal after: /rakudo$ perl Configure.pl ===SORRY!=== I'm missing some needed files from the Parrot installation: /usr/local/lib/parrot/1.6.0-devel/languages/nqp/nqp.pbc /usr/local/lib/parrot/1.6.0-devel/tools/build/ops2c.pl /usr/local/lib/parrot/1.6.0-devel/tools/build/pmc2c.pl /usr/local/src/parrot/1.6.0-devel /usr/local/src/parrot/1.6.0-devel/pmc /usr/local/include/parrot/1.6.0-devel/pmc (Perhaps you need to use Parrot's make install-dev or install the parrot-devel package for your system?) But I have the Parrot installed. I tryed several times to reinstall without any result. Good Luck!!! Victor

[perl #41500] [TODO] config - lib directory needs to be set appropriately for 32/64 bit archs
This ticket has been open for more than two-and-a-half years -- solely on the basis of an ancient inline comment. In that time no one has produced any evidence that we are doing the wrong thing. Given how many of our developers are currently working on AMD64, I would have expected that by now some evidence of doing the wrong thing would have emerged. I am therefore taking this ticket, removing the inline comment from config/init/defaults.pm and resolving the ticket. Wayland, if you get around to testing the install paths on 64-bit and we're doing the wrong thing, please open up a Trac ticket with full details. Thank you very much. kid51

The only types I'm aware of for exceptions are the severity values and exception type values in include/parrot/exceptions.h and runtime/parrot/include/except_*.pasm, and none of these seem to have any real correspondence to the exception types given in pdd23.

[perl #38146] [TODO] OS.pmc - file copy
The discussion in this ticket appears to have petered out in June 2006. The state of any efforts to work on it is unclear. This RT was mentioned by Whiteknight on his blog on July 17 2009: Likewise, Ticket #38146 discusses the creation of a file copying utility, although discussion there has since degraded into a general discussion about what's the best architecture to use for implementing these kinds of functions. Input on that discussion, or a solution to the problem, would both be appreciated (and moving the ticket from RT to Trac where it can be even more visible would be a big plus!) Since there may be people who participated in this thread who are not yet following Trac or parrot-dev, I'm posting this to the old list as well. Can anyone summarize where we stand?

[perl #40817] [TODO] track generated files during the configure/make process
I've been staring at this ticket for more than a year. One of my earlier patches got us part of the way there. Applying Reini's or something like that would get us closer. But the more I look at this problem in light of https://trac.parrot.org/parrot/ticket/586, https://trac.parrot.org/parrot/ticket/434 and https://trac.parrot.org/parrot/ticket/426, the more I believe that the problem is more complex than we at first thought. That's because, taking MANIFEST and MANIFEST.generated together, we use these files for *two* distinct purposes: 1. Determining what files a developer or user needs to build Parrot from source. 2. Determining what files are installed by 'make install' or 'make install-dev'. Purpose #1 is fulfilled exclusively by MANIFEST. Or, to be more precise, by the *left-hand* column in MANIFEST. In a MANIFEST entry like this: compilers/imcc/cfg.c[imcc] ... only the left-hand part matters in terms of having the files one needs for building from source. Purpose #2, in contrast, requires both files to be fulfilled. And it requires *both* columns in each file to be fulfilled, because it's the *right-hand* column that determines where a file is ultimately installed. The patches we've applied or submitted so far automate, more or less successfully, the identification of files *generated* by Configure.pl or make. But, AFAICT, so far it takes a human to determine where a file -- source or generated -- must be installed. In other words, I don't see a way to automate the assignment of data in the right-hand column. Some data: As of last night, a fresh checkout from trunk contains 2142 files. After Configure.pl on Linux/i386, the total number of files in the build dir has increased to 2229, an increase of 87. After make, the total number of files has increased to 2999, an additional increase of 770. But if I then call 'make install', I install only 293 files. What criteria do we have that those 293 files -- and only those 293 -- get installed? We need to have such criteria if we're to have accurate information in the right-hand columns of MANIFEST and MANIFEST.generated. Accurate information those files, in turn, is the only way we can write tests to determine whether 'make install' and 'make install-dev' (and the programs underlying them) are doing the right thing. Thoughts? Thank you very much. kid51

[perl #41893] [BUG] 0.4.9 leaks various .c files into install image, creates PREFIX/config, PREFIX/compiler
On Sun Mar 18 08:23:45 2007, codermattie wrote:
Hello,
In the course of testing the parrot-0.4.9 release I discovered a
number of files installed by the reallyinstall target that
don't belong in an install image.
To understand the output Configure.pl was called with:
--prefix=/usr ,
and make was invoked with:
DESTDIR=/var/tmp/portage/dev-lang/parrot-0.4.9/image/
in the output everything up to image/ can be ignored. it's just a
temporary install location that is copied
over to the real install tree later.
Although we still have a 'destdir' option to tools/dev/install_files.pl,
we don't have a 'destdir' option to Configure.pl. So I couldn't find a
way to feed something into $(DESTDIR) in the Makefile. Instead, I
relied on the procedure I've been using in some Trac tickets:
perl Configure.pl --prefix=/pseudoinstall
/var/tmp/portage/dev-lang/parrot-0.4.9/image//usr/include/src
/var/tmp/portage/dev-lang/parrot-
0.4.9/image//usr/include/src/jit_emit.h
/var/tmp/portage/dev-lang/parrot-
0.4.9/image//usr/include/src/string_private_cstring.h
include/src is a strange place to drop header files. if jit_emit.h
really needs to be installed
then I think include/parrot , or even include/parrot/jit makes more
sense.
Neither jit_emit.h nor string_private_cstring.h appeared under
pseudoinstall/.

/var/tmp/portage/dev-lang/parrot-

I am not very familiar with pkgconfig. Are these really supposed to
install ?

Tonight both GeJ and I encountered the situation that once we were logged in to Trac -- a status which presumably made us Authenticated users with TICKET_CREATE and TICKET_APPEND privileges -- and once we attempted to set or modify our Preferences, a variety of error messages started popping up which effectively negated all our login privileges. GeJ reported being logged in, but once having clicked on the New Ticket button, being told, Error: Forbidden. TICKET_CREATE privileges are required to perform this operation. He also reported this warning in a box underneath the Trac menu bar: Warning: acct_mgr.web_ui.MessageWrapper object at 0x81a80b4c While I was poking around RTFM, I clicked on Preferences and, under the General tab, decided to add my user name and my email address. Big mistake! I got this message underneath the Trac menu bar: Notice: acct_mgr.web_ui.MessageWrapper object at 0x80cec96c. And when I then went to New Ticket, I got the same bad news as GeJ. I got this: Trac detected an internal error: Key Error 'email'. And then, to add insult to injury, Trac told me, To that end, you could 'create' a ticket at this site. And when I tried to do so, I saw that I no longer had TICKET_CREATE privileges. This error is definitely on the server side, because (a) I removed all cookies from the browser I was using, closed the browser, reopened it and attempted to login again -- and got the same error; (b) got the same error with a completely different browser. So GeJ and I can no longer work in Trac. Goodbye, Parrot project, at least until this is fixed! kid51

The new opcode 'box' is limited by its 3 signatures that target Float,
Integer String.
I propose the 3 following new opcodes :
- true
- false
- undef or nil (less Perlish)
After some experiments with bytecode translation,
in WMLScript (r33655) and in Lua (r33760),
it seems obvious that we need them.
François.

[perl #61208] [PATCH] for changing the place of building Parrot-RPMs

Hello,
with Fedora 10 the place for building RPMs change from /usr/src/redhat
to the directory rpmbuild in the home-directory of the user. So the
command:
sudo cp parrot-$(VERSION).tar.gz /usr/src/*/SOURCES
does not work under Fedora 10. This patch modifies
config/gen/makefiles/root.in to generate a Makefile that builds the
RPMs in the subdirectory rpmbuild in the sources of parrot. So root
privileges are not needed any more to execute the command make rpms.
The patch is tested under Fedora 7 and Fedora 9 and make the build
starting under Fedora 10.
Also the file parrot.spec is patched to change the line
--cc=%{__cc} \
to
--cc=%{__cc} \
so that the c-compiler can be invoked with options, which he gets by the
configuration under Fedora 10. May be %{__cxx} from the next line should
also be set in double quotes.
The patch is generated with:
svn diff my_contribution.patch
I put the file in the tar-archiv patch.tar for not getting this e-mail
back with the error message: Probably the 'Hi' virus

[perl #61224] .eof returns false if last read call read the last byte of the file, but not beyond
# New Ticket Created by Jonathan Worthington # Please include the string: [perl #61224] # in the subject line of all future correspondence about this issue. # URL: http://rt.perl.org/rt3/Ticket/Display.html?id=61224 Hi, It seems that the .eof() method on file handles can sometimes return true even if there is nothing more to read. This occurs when you have read upto the last byte of a file (e.g. when a readline reads up to the end of a newline, and that newline is the last thing in the file), but not beyond (which seems to be what causes the EOF flag to be set). I'm thinking this is the wrong behaviour? Thoughts and fixes welcome! Jonathan

[perl #61052] [BUG]: r33482 Can't run 'make realclean' in languages/perl6 directory
# New Ticket Created by [EMAIL PROTECTED] # Please include the string: [perl #61052] # in the subject line of all future correspondence about this issue. # URL: http://rt.perl.org/rt3/Ticket/Display.html?id=61052 This bug has been around for a while, but I've been too lazy to report it :) My build tools automatically run a 'make realclean' if I type 'rebuild' in a directory with a Makefile. If you do that in languages/perl6, you can no longer run make in that directory. Doing an svn up doesn't help. Going back to the top level and running a 'make realclean make' also doesn't help. I know of no way to recover from this aside from doing a fresh checkout.

[perl #60986] Win32 package refuses to install if not run by an administrator
# New Ticket Created by GW # Please include the string: [perl #60986] # in the subject line of all future correspondence about this issue. # URL: http://rt.perl.org/rt3/Ticket/Display.html?id=60986 Hi, I think it is wrong that the Win32 installation package for Parrot refuses to install if not run by an administrator. I simply do not want to pollute my system and am therefore using a non-administrator user for everything. I know that the installation will then not be able to install filetype bindings, system wide entries in the registry or install itself in Program Files and that I will need to modify at least my PATH environment variable to get things working, but belive it or not - this is exactly what I want. gw P.S.: Could you also add a link to the bugs page on the LaunchPad site.

[perl #55386] [TODO] Remove Configure.pl -miniparrot option
On Wed Nov 26 13:18:57 2008, coke wrote: The only remaining instance in branch that I'm not sure how to resolve is t/configure/034-step.t Jim - if you could take a look at that usage of miniparrot and either bless it or remove it, that'd be very helpful. (I can't tell if it's referencing the executable or the config option.) It was just dummy copy. The point of that particular test was to see if genfile() caught the Perl error found in 'sprint' in the next line. But I changed it anyway so that grep wouldn't find it -- and added a test for the captured error message while I was stopping by. I was mistakenly working in trunk rather than branch today when I updated 5 t/steps/*.t test files. I then subsequently discovered that you worked on those files yourself today in branch. So you might get some trivial conflicts when you do the merge. Coverage analysis for configure and build tools in the rm_miniparrot branch can be seen at http://thenceforward.net/parrot/coverage/configure-build/coverage.html. AFAICT you can do the merge back into trunk whenever you're ready. Thank you very much. kid51

Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Note the absence of a 'To:' header in each email. I believe this may
cause Parrot email to be rejected as spam by anti-spam programs and
Internet service providers.
I am employed by a major email service provider -- the type of
business that lives or dies on the basis of whether the email it
sends is actually delivered to the intended recipients. I consulted
with one of the deliverability experts at the company about the
absence of 'To:' headers. He confirmed my suspicion that the absence
of a 'To:' header could lead to rejection of our email.
I became aware of this because I have long run a crude anti-spam
program before downloading my email from my ISP. Whenever I receive
an email lacking a 'To:' header, I get a classic Perl 5 uninitialized
value warning:
Use of uninitialized value $headers{To} in concatenation (.) or
string at ... line 153, STDIN line 1.
Until I started to (really, had to) subscribe to parrot-dev, I could
be certain (99% confidence level) that any email I received without a
'To:' header was spam. So if my amateur program flags parrot-dev and
parrot-tickets email as possible spam, what might professional
programs do.
I'll concede that I have no evidence that our email is already being
rejected, but I think that, at the very least, delivering our mail to
'Cc:' rather than to 'To:' should be made public.
Thank you very much.

Between r31872 (Oct 10) and r31967 (Oct 14), I used 'apt-get' to install 4 additional Debian packages on the Linux box on which these tests were run. The packages were: ii libgmp3-dev4.2.1+dfsg-4 Multiprecision arithmetic library developers ii libgmp3-doc4.2.1+dfsg-4 Multiprecision arithmetic library example co ii libgmp3c2 4.2.1+dfsg-4 Multiprecision arithmetic library ii libgmpxx4 4.2.1+dfsg-4 Multiprecision arithmetic library (C++ bindi I installed these packages because on Linux, Configure.pl was telling me in step auto::gmp that it could not locate GMP. So I was never building Parrot with GMP. After installing these four packages, Configure.pl told me it was now locating GMP. But it was after this install that the test in t/examples/library.t began to fail. So I called 'apt-get remove' to remove the 4 packages above. At this point the test began to pass in both r31967 and HEAD. So, can anyone speculate as to why installation of these 4 packages would cause a failure in a test of PCRE? This morning I found time to reinstall the 3 libgmp3 packages -- but I did not reinstall the libgmp4 package. All tests passed on Linux. So perhaps it was a problem between gmp3 and gmp4. Closing ticket. kid51

I think it would be nice to have a changeable default as an Opcode. I think that this is a question which will call for a ruling from the architect and core developers. Allison, care to weigh in? Thank you very much. kid51
[perl #57286] t/examples/library.t fails during make test on OS X 10.5.4
This appears to be the same issue as reported in RT 59112, so I am going to merge this ticket into that. kid51
[perl #56206] [TODO] Modify the smoke server to accept smokes from releases, not just svn
We're in the beginning stages of deprecating smoke.parrotcode.org in favor of our Smolder report system. So it would probably not be worth our effort to modify the smoke system to accept smoke test reports from new sources, such as proposed here for releases. I would like to encourage you to try out the Smolder server by saying: make make smoldertest. It's as simple as that. I will close this ticket in 7 days if no one objects. Thank you very much. kid51
