I created a Wiki Page for the installation of CPAN from within CPAN on
RH9 that I mentioned at Ingy's Kwiki talk last night:
http://spugwiki.perlocity.org/index.cgi?PerlOnRH9
Okay so the formatting isn't the greatest, but I think a wiki's a great
way to keep information around and alive (as opposed to mailing lists
which never seen to get a definitive "this is how you do it" post).
Installing Bundle::CPAN from within the CPAN shell gets me this error:
Bundle::libnet and the following items had problems during recursive
bundle calls: Data::Dumper
That also occurs when I try and install Bundle::libnet. Installing
Data::Dumper works fine.
However I can install CPAN and libnet if I go into the ./.cpan/build/
directories.
My LANG is set to en_US:
# cat /etc/sysconfig/i18n
LANG="en_US"
SUPPORTED="en_US.UTF-8:en_US:en"
SYSFONT="latarcyrheb-sun16"
Which I had to do to get perldocs to show up without some wacky capital
A's with accents.
I tried setting LANG=C per a Usenet post but that didn't help.
Its not that big of an issue as I can always install by having CPAN get
the modules and then installing by hand.
I looked into the __DATA__ issue I brought up about Kwiki and found out
that I was thinking about Apache::Registry which forbids you from having
__END__ or __DATA__ in your scripts. I would still like to see the wiki
files move into their own seperate files. I smell a plugin!
