biber updates
Hi all,
I have pushed more changes to the master1.7 branch which will hopefully
in future replace the master branch.
I added some build dependencies, no it complains on:
Checking prerequisites...
requires:
! Encode::EUCJPASCII is not installed
! Mozilla::CA is not installed
! Unicode::Collate (0.97) is installed, but we need version >= 0.98
Mozilla::CA is a fake, I will remove the test in one of the patches.
Encode::EUCJPASCII I couldn't find
Concerning unicode-collate: The control file gives:
libunicode-collate-perl (>= 0.90-1) | perl (>= 5.15.9)
which means that if we have perl 5.18 installed, it will not work
since it provides an old libunicode-collate-perl.
I installed libunicode-collate-perl and after that some more test
succeeded. (before 3/9 failed tests, after that 3/4).
Then, I read an old thread about 5.18 and hash randomization
https://github.com/plk/biber/issues/6
and after setting
PERL_HASH_SEED=0
in the build environment, we are down to one failed test ...
Test Summary Report
-------------------
t/tool-bltxml.t (Wstat: 256 Tests: 2 Failed: 1)
Failed test: 1
Non-zero exit status: 1
That is also mentioned in the above issue (6) so I have aasked
for how to fix it.
Maybe Werner can send us a fix.
