perl 5.36 cpan | Config::Any fails tests

[shawnlaffan]

Config::Any is needed by DBIx::Class but is failing one of its test files.

I can replicate the failures on a local machine using the same build of strawberry perl 5.36.

Adding a use Config::Any::Perl to the top of the test file gets it to pass.

No other build on CPAN testers has this issue which makes me suspect it is to do with the 5.36 build.

[shawnlaffan]

This is due to an issue in File::Find - see https://rt.cpan.org/Transaction/Display.html?id=2464022

It has been fixed in perl 5.38 via Perl/perl5#20008 and will hopefully be backported for 5.36.1 and 5.34.2 (if the latter is released). Otherwise we can apply the patches from that PR to the build.

(Edited for grammar)

[shawnlaffan]

The perl PR 20008 patch is now part of the build (09df569) so this error no longer occurs.

Closing issue.
