Wait, you mean that without pod2man the build fails for you even when not using Docker? Alright, that's a weird one. In my case everything builds properly each and every time I test the package before uploading a new release, and I guess this holds true for the majority of the people using this package (otherwise the comments here would've been flooded with complaints). Even the upstream documentation mentions pod2man as a dependency only in the context of Docker, not as a hard dependency for a generic, non-Docker build.

It doesn't cost me anything to add it as a dependency, of course, but I'd like to understand this issue a bit better first. What's the exact error you've been getting? Is it the same as @superpupervlad's?

at least for me and superpupervlad the build fails without pod2man installed, that's why I think it should be a mandatory dependency. :)

Nocifer commented on 2020-09-17 19:30 (UTC)

@hillbicks it's already an optional dependency.

@superpupervlad: you need to install pod2man from aur before the install

@Nocifer: can you add pod2man as a depencency? Thanks

superpupervlad commented on 2020-08-21 23:22 (UTC)

If building package gives error /bin/sh: pod2man: command not found. Then add /usr/bin/core_perl to your PATH.

Mocord monitors do not detect motion with version 1.34.18. Resetting the mysql database and reconfiguring the monitors did not fix the issue for me. After downgrading to 1.34.16 (keeping the fresh configuration) Mocord works as expected.

Just a heads up: any Perl AUR packages that zoneminder depends upon will need to be rebuilt after the Perl 5.32 update.

@alanking: Agreed - I definitely preferred automatic database upgrades. @DaMadOne: seconded, Nocifer has done a great job.

I for one am grateful of the work @Nocifer has put into this package. Since he/she has taken over upgrades have gone much more smoothly than before. It use to be a nightmare(To the point I almost never upgraded my ZM VM)! Now it MAY be a minor inconvenience but usually nothing more than what a "normal" Arch upgrade may need.

Thank you for your work @Nocifier. I just upgraded.. took note of the part of the upgrade that told me to run zmupdate.pl and all is well.

That's a shame. I'd say most of us like the automatic upgrade of the database. Like you said, if you want more hands on and manual intervention, you can build it yourself old school.

Nocifer commented on 2020-05-15 10:27 (UTC)

@Synthead it sure is possible, but at this point one could wonder why we bother using package managers at all and not simply return to the good old days of downloading the source .tar ourselves and running ./configure && ./make && ./make install. Or switch to Gentoo for that matter.

But anyway, in this new version I've removed all shell commands from the install script and replaced them with instructions for the user.
