Description bitozoid 2016-09-26 14:30:10 UTC

stow depends on dev-lang/perl, but it stops working when upgrading perl, so the ebuild should have a dependency with the installed version of perl:

$ stow
Can't locate Stow.pm in @INC (you may need to install the Stow module) (@INC contains: /etc/perl /usr/local/lib64/perl5/5.22.2/x86_64-linux /usr/local/lib64/perl5/5.22.2 /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/5.22.2/x86_64-linux /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/5.22.2 /usr/local/lib64/perl5 /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib64/perl5/5.22.2/x86_64-linux /usr/lib64/perl5/5.22.2 .) at /usr/bin/stow line 418.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/bin/stow line 418.

Comment 1 bitozoid 2016-09-26 14:35:47 UTC

It seems that perl-cleaner fixes that.

Needs a dev-lang/perl:= subslot dep in RDEPEND so that upgrading perl's causes a package rebuild.

perl-cleaner is more a stop-gap for portage not quite being smart enough and us not having enough subslot deps.
