...'m replacing a dead F19 box with a new C7 one and I'm trying to get my Perl install completed. Ultimately, I need to get Selenium::Remote::Driver working, but I'm struggling before that. I started off as always by using RPM's for everything I possibly can. I then started to use CPAN for everything else. It looked like CPAN was working and things were installing "OK". However, as I went for bigger modules, anything that had dependences were then failing as the dependencie were installed OK but then did not appear to be available. The last thing I've just tr...

Hello List, Running CentOS Linux release 7.0.1406 (Core), and trying to update CPAN from version 1.98 to version 2.10, but it fails. <snip> t/97-process_setup_options.t .. ok t/97-return_values.t .......... 6/10 # Failed test 'blib/script/cpan -j t/97-lib_cpan1/CPAN/Config.pm Local::Prereq::Fails' # at t/97-return_values.t line 49. # got: '2' #...

I could use some assistance getting CPAN functional again. CPAN stopped working on Centos 4.2 x64, and I can no longer install modules. I did a install Bundle::CPAN and upgraded to 1.8.2, and perl was updated afterwards via yum update. The error seems related to GPG, does anyone know if 1.8.2 added new restrictions on signatures?...

Hi list, I have trouble install the following perl modules to my Centos 4.2 server and I need help Digest::SHA1 Digest::HMAC Net::DNS Time::HiRes HTML::Tagset HTML::Parser Pod::Usage Parse::Syslog Statistics::Distributions I tried "perl -MCPAN -e shell" and then "install Pod::Usage" and I got the following errors: CPAN: Storable loaded ok Going to read /root/.cpan/Metadata Warning: Found only 0 objects in /root/.cpan/Metadata CPAN: LWP::UserAgent loaded ok Fetching with LWP: ftp://ftp.perl.org/pub/CPAN/authors/01mailrc....

It's not a good idea to update CPAN and/or install modules from CPAN into the OS-installed perl. Use rpm packages from yum. Many can be found in the standard CentOS repo and EPEL has many as well. Take a look at perlbrew if you really need a new version of perl for some reason. If you don't really need the new version, don...

Hey folks, Maybe there is a Perl/CPAN list that is a better place to ask this? If so, maybe someone can point me to it. Anyway, I want to be able to script the installation of a bunch of CPAN modules, and the first basic problem I am coming up against is that the "cpan" command seems to always return 0 regardless of whether...

...'m still working on getting my brand new Centos 7 mail server working and I'm having problems with Perl. Most of the modules are available as RPM's which was straight forward. However, MIME::Parser, Net::SCP and Net::SSH aren't. In order to get these working I installed the perl-CPAN rpm and then installed the modules above. Doing this, installed perl-local-lib.noarch as a dependancy. The problem now is that when I used CPAN to the above modules they installed without errors, but were only available to the root user. I can't uninstall perl-local-lib without uninstall...

The claim in another reply that RPM CPAN > modules and cpan- or cpanm-installed modules cannot work together is > incorrect. Since I'm the only other person to reply, I presume you mean something I said, but I don't think I ever said they "cannot work together" - in fact I said that personally, I use both RPM and...

To safely make Perl modules from CPAN in Solaris, I used this procedure: mkdir /opt/cpan chmod 777 /opt/cpan chown joe:101 /opt/cpan PERL5LIB=$PERL5LIB:/opt/cpan export PERL5LIB /usr/perl5/bin/perlgcc -MCPAN -e shell Also, ~/.cpan/CPAN/MyConfig.pm specifically had 'makepl_arg' => q[LIB=/opt/cpan PREFIX=/opt/cpan INSTALLMAN...

?CPAN is a core module which can be tricky to update on the RedHat based systems. Suggest investigating: local::lib App::cpanminus Pinto? ?If you need a newer Perl, check out www.softwarecollections.org.

Not sure if this is the proper list, but I've spent days browsing for the solution. This only happens on the CentOS machine, so I'll start here. After upgrading CPAN, I get the following: undefined subroutine &Compress::Zlib::gzopen called at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.5/CPAN/Tarzip.pm line 102. "gzopen" seems to refer to a PHP command. Am I missing a module, or have I hit a bug? KS

Dear list, I was installing Asterisk via the AMP method off the AMP website. There is a portion in there where they want you to use perl-cpan to install telnet. The first time I installed I had no problem. I messed up and trashed the box further down in the install.. This time I made a mistake and put a -jp3 switch for multi processors. This has caused the install of telnet tank. I found the cpan config file and removed it. This al...

Everyone, Have a new install of Centos 4.4 with a Supermicro dual processor. I was trying to install the perl module Astro::Time with CPAN and the initial setup of CPAN suggested a -j3 switch to be used with 'make' on dual processor machines. I followed the suggestion but when the CPAN module tried to use make it failed with the -j3 switch. I thought I would uninstall CPAN to start over without the -j3 switch, but could not...

Thank you Kahlil for your reply. I made few perl changes, uninstalled CPAN, removed the .cpan dir, and reinstalled, and ran 'install CPAN' and everything looked much better. That is, no failures. The last part of the output was; <snip> t/97-mock.t ................... ok t/97-process_options.t ........ ok t/97-process_setup_options.t .. ok t/97-return_values...

If you mean that you do that manually, you don?t have to. The ?look? command in the cpan shell or the --look option to cpanm does that automatically. That is, it unpacks the module and drops you into a sub-shell where you can work with the module manually. Back when I...

Maybe a little off-topic. But using cpan, I tried to install IO::Compress::Base 2.006. I already had 2.005 installed. For the life of me, I couldn't get it to upgrade. It finally occurred to me to download the ".tgz" file, and install it that way. That worked. But does anyone have any hints on how to force cpan to upgrad...

Hi all im not sure if this is the right mailing list but im using centos anyway. i run CPAN by perl -MCPAN -e shell and got through the first time configuration and after selecting the mirror sites i got this error and i can't get any modules to be installed. I haven't encountered this before and not very familiar with cpan. Constant subroutine __USE_POSIX undefined at /usr/li...
