Hi all, running 'perl-cleaner all' is not safe for the ph-files. Even the ph-files of the current perl get removed and are not replaced by new ones. After running perl-cleaner I have to run mkdir -p /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/i686-linux/ cd /usr/include; h2ph * sys/* arpa/* netinet/* bits/* security/* asm/* gnu/* linux/* cd /usr/include/linux; h2ph * (that's taken from the perl ebuild. emerge perl-cleaner -pv && emerge info These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating dependencies ...done!

Or (maybe) perl-cleaner tries to use h2ph but h2ph fails because the directory /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/<perl version>/<arch> doesn't exist. It seems h2ph doesn't create the dir itself and errors out. See the perl-cleaner log at https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-3351143.html

confirmed. run perl-cleaner phupdate for now, i'm patching and posting the new version of perl-cleaner in a minute or so.
:) Thanks. I appreciate it. S.
Just a me-too. I've run perl-cleaner-1.0.4 on three machines so far, and this bug bit the third one. The first two seemed fine, though I have no idea why.
this was fixed in subsequent versions, closing out :)
