Description

Hi Xeno,

In the course of updating the Agent code, I've found I'll need the following package included with the HoneyClient::Agent bundle: 

File::Basename

Please add this package to the trunk/cpan list for the Agent bundle.

I've already updated the Notes section in the UserGuide. Please close this ticket when you've completed this task.

Thanks,

— Darien

I see two listings for File::Basename. One is for perl 5.10 (which is what cpan says too) and one is for a package listed as kurila-1.11_0. Downloading that one, it throws up a big warning banner saying " *** WHOA THERE!!! ***

This is an UNSTABLE DEVELOPMENT release. The version of this kurila distribution is 1, that is, odd, (as opposed to even) and that signifies a development release. If you want a maintenance release, you want an even-numbered version.

Do **NOT** install this into production use. Data corruption and crashes are possible.

" etc

So are we going to up the requirement to perl 5.10 then?

Hrm… good point. Actually, it looks like File::Basename may be bundled with the core perl distribution itself:

http://search.cpan.org/~nwclark/perl-5.8.8/lib/File/Basename.pm

If that's the case, then we don't need to do anything at all. So far, all my installed instances of perl seem to already have File::Basename on them. Can you confirm?

Yeah, looks like we don't need to include this package, since it's part of the base-perl installation. As such, I'm closing this ticket.
