Thread: Angerwhale + CPAN




Angerwhale + CPAN

Hello,

      This may be a little bit off-topic as it's more about CPAN than Catalyst, but I've almost always had trouble installing modules that have lots of dependencies with cpan. All I do is simply invoke the cpan shell (with the `cpan` command), and type "install Angerwhale". After installing lots of packages, cpan dies (and hangs without returning to the prompt). The last 55 lines of the cpan output (up to the point where it hangs) are posted here: http://pastebin.com/m69751dc0 . Your help is greatly appreciated it.

Thank you,
Yousef

It looks like Crypt::RSA failed which caused Crypt::OpenPGP
to fail.

Also, why is the output messed up, i.e.:

> *** ExtUtilq::AutoIlstall ilstallation diniqhed.

That should say *** ExtUtils::AutoInstall installation
finished.
Also, it looks like some output of various make test runs
are
interleaved with each other, leading me to believe that your
CPAN.pm is
seriously fucked.  Maybe upgrade to a new version or try
CPANPLUS?

Once your CPAN starts working again, manually install
Crypt::OpenPGP
and let me know how that goes.  That's the hardest dep to
get going,
mostly because the various Crypt:: authors seem to enjoy
writing tests
that take 15 minutes to run.

This is probably because I maximized my xterm window before copying (sometimes this messes my terminal up).

I used CPANPLUS and the installation of Crypt::OpenPGP succeeded. One of the tests failed, but I asked it to proceed anyway. Here's the full output from CPANPLUS (if it matters): http://pastebin.com/m1f83dce1

Currently I'm trying to install Angerwhale, but I'm getting _lots_ of errors (mostly "Failed Tests";). [10 minutes later] I managed, however, to get a successful installation (by just answering "y" to the "Would you like me to proceed anyway or should we abort?" question). I'll see if I can get my blog up.

Thank you for your help.
