Bug 206985

The build fails in mock due to failing tests:

+ /usr/bin/perl Makefile.PL INSTALLDIRS=vendor 'OPTIMIZE=-O2 -g -pipe -Wall
-Wp,-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -fexceptions -fstack-protector --param=ssp-buffer-size=4
-m64 -mtune=generic'
Could not find a serial port to use for testing.
Please specify one on the 'perl Makefile.PL' command line, like so:
        perl Makefile.PL /dev/ttyS0
Trying to find a serial port for testing...
(use 'perl Makefile.PL TESTPORT=<DEVICE>' to override this search)
        checking '/dev/ttyS1' ... nope
        checking '/dev/cua01' ... nope
        checking '/dev/cua/b' ... nope
        checking '/dev/tty1' ... nope
        checking '/dev/tty.modem' ... nope

Now, it's obvious that you've disabled the %check section but it seems that
Makefile.PL insists on trying to figure out which serial port should be tested
just in case 'make test' is run later.  Dumb.  Tacking "TESTPORT=/dev/null" onto
the Makefile.PL line gets things building.

After the above fix, everything builds fine.  rpmlint says:

W: perl-Device-SerialPort make-check-outside-check-section #make test
   This is bogus, but if you remove the commenting from the %check line it goes
away.  Fix it if you like.

The license should be "GPL or Artistic"; that's the usual way to indicate the
oft-seen "same as perl" terms.

Hmm, that didn't seem to work.  Ah, the URL immediately above is wrong;
s/1.002-1/1.002-2/ and it's OK.

Everything looks good now.

APPROVED

Checked in and built and added to owners.list.

Thanks for the review!
