I noticed that some of the Perl modules required by HTML::Mason, and HTML::Mason itself, were out-of-date. So, here's a tarball with some of the updated modules. Please note that HTML::Mason does not (yet) work with Apache2. (They're waiting for mod_perl 2 to come out before they build in support.) In order to get this module to work, I had to explicitly emerge apache-1.3. I also added an ebuild for XML::SimpleObject, becuase I personally find it to be a very useful module, and I think it deserves a place in Portage. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
And where's the tarball? :-)
Sorry...I'm pretty sure I put it in the URL field. Here's the link: http://deneb.condordes.net/temp/dev-perl.tar.gz
for XML::SimpleObject, please use g-cpan.pl instead.
What is g-cpan.pl? I couldn't find it mentioned on the Gentoo website anywhere, nor could I find it in /usr/portage.
g-cpan.pl is a tool in portage - a link should be in /usr/bin/. It partially automates the task of fetching CPAN modules and registering them with Portage.
g-cpan.pl doesn't seem to work, as XML::SimpleObject is somewhat inconsistent in its naming conventions. The tarball is named XML-SimpleObject-0.53.tar.gz, but the directory it unpacks to is named XML-SimpleObject0.53 (no hyphen). Thus, I had to write the src_unpack() hack to get the directory named properly.
Is anyone actually working on this bug? It's been about a month now... the URL again: http://deneb.condordes.net/temp/dev-perl.tar.gz
Apologies for the delay. HTML-Mason and dependencies have been updated in CVS. Exception-Class had to go to 1.12. I need to look at XML::SimpleObject a bit more.
Great, thanks a lot! Let me know if there's anything else I can do to help.
XML-SimpleObject added to CVS. I decided to set ${S} rather than moving directories around.
