Bug 645990 – app-portage/g-cpan-0.16.9 generates invalid ebuild names (missing version) from dependencies

• Status: UNCONFIRMED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Ervin Peters 2018-01-28 18:57:21 UTC]

I recognized two ebuilds that are created or recreated on g-cpan -u. They are both dependencies. (Tree Listing will follow) named Ouch-.ebuild and curry-.ebuild.
I deleted the invalid Files and installed curry directly via g-cpan -i curry. The invalid ebuild was not created. After I performed a g-cpan -u the invalid Ebuild reappear.
Additionally I got some 'Use of uninitialized Value' warnings:

Use of uninitialized value in lc at /usr/bin/g-cpan line 604.
Use of uninitialized value in lc at /usr/bin/g-cpan line 608.
Use of uninitialized value in string eq at /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/5.24.3/Gentoo/CPAN.pm line 229.

Looking dir references, the DBIx-Class-Schema-Loader/DBIx-Class-Schema-Loader-0.07048.ebuild has a dependency to '>=perl-gcpan/curry-1.001000'.

Tried to find the error but did not succeed yet.

Maybe someone has an idea?

Just for clarification: the invalid ebuilds are generated additionally, the version with a working version is available. But it is somehow annoying.
