Cannot install Perl Modules

dghere · October 30, 2013, 10:41am

Hi.
I am installing Bugzilla in my SUSE server.
It requires some Perl modules to be pre-installed.
I am unable to install those Perl modules.
I receive the following message when I try to install any of the modules:

[COLOR="#FF0000"]Has already been unwrapped into directory /root/.cpan/build/List-MoreUtils-0.33-TatoG0
Has already been made
Skipping test because of notest pragma
Running make install
Already done[/COLOR]

What should I do to install the modules properly ?

Thanks in advance.

Hi
Install the already packaged rpm rather than via cpan?

zypper in perl-List-MoreUtils

And for those Perl modules which are not readily available as a packaged
RPM you can install modules from CPAN. See
https://www.novell.com/communities/node/9222/how-add-additional-perl-modules-your-linux-installation
for a Cool Solutions article I wrote on how to do this.

It’s not in SLES though, only the SDK

SLE 11 SP3 SDK is at
http://download.novell.com/Download?buildid=hF8sRGTVC04~&ref=suse
you only need CD1. If you’re not using SLES 11 SP3 you need you get a different version of the SDK which matches the version of SLES you’re using. http://download.novell.com/ and look in the ‘Product or Technology (optional)’ list for ‘SUSE Linux Enterprise Software Development Kit’

I need to install the following perl modules:
[COLOR="#FF0000"]DateTime
DateTime::TimeZone

But when I execute the following command,
[COLOR="#FF0000"]/usr/bin/perl install-module.pl DateTime[/COLOR]
I get the following output:

How can I successfully install the modules ?

Hi
As indicated by Mike, add the SLE SDK for your release and add the
required modules either via zypper or YaST.

Any missing ones should be found here;
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/perl/
Unsupported as such.

As to why you can’t build via cpan, not really sure. Maybe move
your .cpan folder and start again.

Hi dghere,

How can I successfully install the modules ?

if you want to continue the CPAN approach, please follow the advice already given and move away your current CPAN directory (/root/.cpan) to start from scratch. It looks like you have quite some previous builds in there, probably from old releases, and something is confusing the dependency checks.

Regards,
Jens
