I'm running CentOS 4.4. I'm trying to install swatch (a log watcher) using CPAN. It's getting hung up on trying to install a dependency, Pod::Simple So before I get too wrapped up in this, I have the following questions: 1. Is there an alternative way to install swatch? I didn't get a hit when I tried yum. 2. I'm not wedded to swatch. Is there another log checker

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

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 INSTALLMAN3DIR=/opt/cpan/man/man3], Does this make sense in CentOS as

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

I'm trying to install swatch using rpmbuild. I'm getting dependency errors saying that I need perl(Date::Calc), perl(Date::Format), and perl(File::Tail). I've been beaten over the head in this group for using CPAN. So methodology do I use to I install those modules? === Al

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? $ sudo perl -MCPAN -e shell cpan shell -- CPAN exploration

When you use --no-depchk with this tool, does this actually turn off the dependency check in the final rpm as well? Reading docs about this I am not sure and I just installed an rpm that I know I am missing the deps for and built with this switch and it installed fine? Thanks, jlc

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

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

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

I realize this is my fault because once upon a time I installed a package using CPAN and probably other admins on the system have as well but now whenever I update perl I have to jump through hoops to get perl applications to work again (usually updating Scalar::Util and another package with CPAN). I would love to figure out how to fix this so it's not such a headache to keep up to date with

Hi, I'm using CentOS 4.3 on all my PC's, and I'm very happy with it. Everything *just* works. I want to give DVD::RIP 0.97.10 a try. I enabled rpmforge and kbs repos, but there's only 0.52.2 available, which has an annoying bug in it. So I installed the main dependency, transcode, via yum. Then I downloaded the (PERL) sources of DVD::RIP 0.97.10, ran configure (e. g. perl

With all due respect to the various people, their hard work and associated repos, where is the best place to do a yum install for these two packages below in regards to an internet facing production Centos 4.4 server perl-IO-Zlib perl-Archive-Tar I noticed dag and karan repos appear to have it and my experience and research tells me that using CPAN is not an option for possible problems at

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

There are a couple of problems with passthrough qemu: 1. virsh version/capabilities command executes "qemu -help" but this gives an error in my case because my customized qemu has to receive mandatory non-standard parameters "qemu -c -n -- -help". 2. Similarly when passing arguments as passthrough in a VMs XML. How can I make sure that these non-standard arguments are passed

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

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.
