Bugzilla Bug 160137

Because I use layman to manage my portage overlays, I am required to source the
layman's make.conf file from within my own /etc/make.conf; this causes problems
with (minimally) app-portage/g-cpan-0.15_rc1 rejecting all g-cpan requests with
an overlay error message.

a lead from IRC:

  @ mcummings : i'm suprised that Shell::EnvImporter couldn't handle it
either...

working on it - and thanks for filing the bug, i wasn't kidding in irc, memory
like a swiss cheese block :)

Updated g-cpan file

fixed in svn and attached. Mostly just a touch up of the lame strip_ends
function to clean up some funkiness from Shell::EnvImporter (not the best
module in the world, but it does service a need). going ahead and closing, give
me a ping if for some reason it doesn't work (though i tested using your
examples and it worked now  ;)

latest g-cpan with another fix for this problem

I have some problems with the g-cpan included here.

Please note the backslash in front of the URL to be fetched. I believe that is
the cause why g-cpan cannot download the file. wget(1) other can fetch the
files from the URL.


Actually, when generating the ebuilds, things went smoothly but maybe I should
mention another extra backslash ...
