similar to: CentOS 4 CPAN problem

(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

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 upgrade? I even tried the "upgrade" command, and that

*Hi all, does somebody know where I can find perl-libnet rpm for centos 4.3 with perl-5.8.5-16.RHEL4.x86_64.rpm Tried dag's repo wich has alot of perl modules but unfortuneately hasn't got perl-libnet, just an empty dir http://dag.wieers.com/packages/perl-libnet/ thanks in advance!

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

Hi, I am unable to build a package I maintain using a relatively current build of R-2.4.0 alpha, whereas the package builds just fine on R-2.3.1. Both versions of R were built from source. I'm hoping a guRu might be able to give some help. Some snippets from the build process: R-2.3.1 making DLL ... gcc -Ic:/R-2.3.1/src/extra/zlib -DHAVE_ZLIB -Ic:/R-2.3.1/include -Wall -O2 -c

Hi, I am having problems installing the XML package with R-devel on freebsd. If I simply do install.packages("XML"), it says that the parser.h file is not found. After reading the INSTALL file, I have set setenv XML_CONFIG /usr/local/bin/xml2-config setenv LIBXML_LIBDIR -L/usr/local/lib setenv LIBXML_INCDIR -I/usr/local/include/libxml2/libxml and install.packages("XML")

Joseph, Please try my modified versions of these patches. These are compile-tested on Fedora and they don't break any existing functionality, but I don't have either urpmi nor a statically-linked xz so I cannot fully test them. I have also fixed detection of zlib (2/3). Rich.

Dear All, I think I am confused about how I'd be able to use zlib starting with R 2.7.0. I just downloaded the latest development version, built it, etc, but I am not able to find the zlib.h that, I believe, R should place somewhere under "where/you/want/R/to/go" (from --prefix=/where/you/want/R/to/go). There seem to be entry points for zlib in the binary (e.g., grep -r gzopen ./

Allow an alternate libc, such as dietlibc, to be used for the init binary in the supermin appliance. Rich.

When building the mini initrd, previously we copied the modules into the initrd as-is, so for example if the module was xz-compressed, we copied the foo.ko.xz file to the initrd. This requires that the mini init binary is linked to zlib & lzma, so that it knows how to uncompress these modules when insmoding them at boot time. Also since the init is statically linked, it required _static_

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

Hi All; I am looking for a way to install Enbedded Perl on a Blue Quartz CentOS 4 Based server.... Any info on how to do it ???

Hello, all - I've been dealing with this problem for quite a while, and most of my solutions have just been dirty hacks. I'd like to find an appropriate solution. I've installed perl modules in the past via yum. Sure, they get installed - but none of my perl applications can find them. I know that this is a long outstanding issue, because I have yet to find a real solution. Since

I am looking to losslessly archive a lot of music and share it over a network. The following stipulations lead me to an interesting conclusion: 1. Almost no programs can read or write flac files directly. 2. Almost all programs can read and write wav files directly. 3. The cost of encoding flac files is fairly low 4. The cost of decoding them is even lower 5. These files would be read much more

Hi! I tried to configure and compile R 1.4.0 on a sun sparc solaris 2.6 box using the sun compiler (workshop 6?); but: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (mt100): ./configure --x-includes=/usr/openwin/include --x-libraries=/usr/openwin/lib --with-f77 [...] R is now configured for sparc-sun-solaris2.6 Source

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

Does anyone have experience on installing the Oracle instantclient and DBD::Oracle on CentOS 4.4. I have been having several issues with getting the RPMs from Oracle's site working with DBD::Oracle. I can get the oracle instant client to install without issue. But I cannot compile/install DBD::Oracle using cpan or cpan2rpm. I found http://freshrpms.net/docs/oracle/ which has a nosrc rpm

v1 -> v2: - If we split out the init program into a separate init/ directory, that makes it much easier to build against an alternate libc. I tried to build against uClibc, but uClibc requires an entire build chain, which looked like it was going to be a massive ballache. Rich.

Hi, I just used RPMforge package perl-Mail-Sender, and am looking at the perl cpan site for info, anyone got a simple way to determine if the module is working properly? I am trying to use the cpan info, but it's a bit cryptic (as perl is wont to be). -it says to use this: #!/usr/local/bin/perl use ExtUtils::Installed; my $instmod = ExtUtils::Installed->new(); foreach my $module
