I'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

...9;s) I learned the hard way not to use language-specific packaging systems like CPAN for Perl because they'd conflict with RPM's database and make it much harder to manage what was installed on my system. If I now need a package for which no RPM is available, I'll use a utility like cpanspec to repackage it into an RPM and install that. Now I'm starting to work with Ruby and apparently it has its own packages called "gems". How do people deal with making Ruby and RPM get along? I'm trying to build Diaspora, an open source alternative to Facebook, and it wants me...

(I've just tried this on a second C7 box, literally clean install, only did it on Friday, with the same results) I'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

...er-writing files that actually belong to rpm packages. A number of things you can do. The sort of recommended way is to package the perl modules into an RPM and install them that way (so that the package managers know about them and can resolve conflicts). There are progs to do it for - look for cpanspec. CPAN will install the modules in ~/perl5/... by default - the "real" way of doing things is to @INC that location at the top of the perl script or set environment variables appropriately. Finally, if you must, fiddle with the CPAN configuration to install them in a system location. Bu...

Hi all, This is an interesting thread: http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos/2014-April/141871.html about the problems you can find building perl modules for CentOS releases (new or old). I agree with John R. Pierce: cpan is very very bad tool ( in fact, I hate it) to build perl modules for CentOS systems, breaks all other perl modules. I need to use several perl modules in several

Hi, I'm trying to build several SCL perl516 modules for using assp spamfilter. Some modules have dependencies which spend a lot of errors or can not be build on a x86_64 system. perl-Email-Valid-0.184 for example needs Win32::IPHelper and Win32::TieRegistry. If I build this rpm for standard perl510, the Win32 modules are not required. Why are theses dependencies only for perl516? Can I

Hi, This is totally off-topic (it''s an rpm/rpmbuild problem), but I want to get to a point where I''m installing and configuring munin-node with puppet. To do that, I need a clean, standardized way of installing munin-mode on CentOS (RHELish) boxes. I could install munin-node from source via puppet and probably make enough edits that all the files end up in reasonable locations
