Debian Jessie Install - Missing libexcel-writer-xlsx-perl depend for clark-kent.pl

[Josh Stompro]

Debian Jessie
Evergreen 2.8.1

I just tried to run clark-kent.pl and found that I get an error about "Can't locate Excel/Writer/XLSX.pm"

It looks like that change was made to the other makefile.install-* files but the jessie version was just missed because it was created on the same day (2014-08-07) as the commit for libexcel-writer-xlsx-perl.

LP#1351355 - Switch to libexcel-writer-xlsx-perl

The following commit shows the changes made to the other install files.
http://git.evergreen-ils.org/?p=Evergreen.git;a=commit;h=e19d29a330c2231dd3d10ab3652f55bef4a0aaea

Just need the same changes made to the Makefile.debian-jessie file.

Thanks Josh, I have created a quick working branch for this: user/bshum/lp1463145_jessie_xlsx_writer

http://git.evergreen-ils.org/?p=working/Evergreen.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/user/bshum/lp1463145_jessie_xlsx_writer

Let's try to get this pushed along to the branches before the maintenance releases so that Debian Jessie support is in a much better state.

Thanks for your work on this!

Based on feedback from Josh, I also removed a dependency for libspreadsheet-writeexcel-perl and force pushed another version of this change to working.

Thanks Josh!

I just did a test install with this branch applied and it looks good. clark-kent.pl runs without errors after the install is done.

I have tested this code and consent to signing off on it with my name, Josh Stompro and email address, <email address hidden>.

Cherry-picked into master, rel_2_7, and rel_2_8 for great justice.

Thanks, everyone.
