Bug ID: 1704785
           Summary: perl-Net-SSLeay-1.85-9.fc29 FTBFS: /usr/bin/ld: cannot
                    find -lz
           Product: Fedora
           Version: 29
            Status: NEW
         Component: perl-Net-SSLeay

  Target Milestone: ---
    Classification: Fedora

perl-Net-SSLeay-1.85-9.fc29 fails to build in F29 and F30:

gcc  -lpthread -shared -Wl,-z,relro -Wl,-z,now
-specs=/usr/lib/rpm/redhat/redhat-hardened-ld -L/usr -L/usr/lib64 -L/usr/lib
-L/usr/local/lib -fstack-protector-strong  SSLeay.o  -o
blib/arch/auto/Net/SSLeay/SSLeay.so  \
   -L/usr -L/usr/lib64 -L/usr/lib -lssl -lcrypto -lz -lperl   \

BUILDSTDERR: /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lz

That's caused by openssl-devel-1.1.1b-4 that removed a dependency on zlib-devel
and that was pushed into Fedora ≥ 29. A possible fix is applying

--- Comment #1 from Paul Howarth  ---
I was planning on waiting to see what upstream had to say about the PR (or even
better, for a non-dev upstream release) before doing an update to a stable
Fedora.

Is there some good reason why an FTBFS in a stable Fedora branch should need a
fix sooner?

In case of rebuilding perl-bootstrap Modularity module, it would be an issue.
However, it's not planned right now, so it does not hurry.

--- Comment #3 from Ben Cotton  ---
This message is a reminder that Fedora 29 is nearing its end of life.
Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 29 on 2019-11-26.
It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer
maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with
a
Fedora 'version' of '29'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 29 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Petr, is there any point doing this now?

None of the now supported perl-bootstrap streams use perl-Net-SSLeay. But the
non-modular perl-Net-SSLeay package does not build anymore
https://koschei.fedoraproject.org/package/perl-Net-SSLeay. I did not check
the reason and Fedora 29 goes EOL soon, but it would be great to fix it in
Fedora 30.
