net-im/silc-plugin-1.0.1-r1 missing perl-part error

using irssi-0.8.9 executing '/SCRIPT LOAD silc-mime' we got the following error overhere - i hope a MIME-Lite-3.01.ebuild update to 3.03 should help ...

[Comment 1 Andrej Kacian (RETIRED) 2004-11-27 12:14:01 UTC]

MIME::QuotedPrint on my system is provided by dev-perl/MIME-Base64, which is a dependency of dev-perl/MIME-tools. Notice that Words.pm (belonging to MIME-tools) is complaining about this missing dependency, not the script itself.

After a quick check, my MIME-tools was at version 6.20002, which isn't even in portage anymore (bug #65422). My MIME-Base64 was at 3.01, yet I had no problems using the silc-mime.pl script. After installing MIME-tools-5.415, which pulled in MIME-Base64-3.05, the script still works.

Perl people, what do you think? What would be the correct RDEPEND entry for silc-plugin? I vote for >=dev-perl/MIME-tools-3.413, since that is the first version that depends on >=dev-perl/MIME-Base64-3.05.

[Comment 2 Andrej Kacian (RETIRED) 2004-11-28 05:24:25 UTC]

Hm, even after installing MIME-Base64-3.05, MIME::QuotedPrint 3.01 is still being found. I guess it's finding /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.5/i686-linux/MIME/QuotedPrint.pm installed by perl itself.

MIME-Base64 installs its QuotedPrint.pm into /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.5/i686-linux/MIME/QuotedPrint.pm, which I think is not found by irssi.

Funny thing is that when you load the script after startup (/load silc-mime), it loads succesfully.

[Comment 3 Andrej Kacian (RETIRED) 2004-12-01 01:13:35 UTC]

After I installed new perl (5.8.6), the problem went away.

I've also reemerged MIME-tools yesterday, but I doubt this fixed it.

[Comment 4 Andrej Kacian (RETIRED) 2005-01-05 11:45:07 UTC]

Is this still an issue?

[Comment 5 Andrej Kacian (RETIRED) 2005-05-11 18:28:21 UTC]

Daniel? Should we close this?

[Comment 6 Daniel Webert 2006-03-05 07:34:56 UTC]

at the moment i have this perl prob w/ irssi .8.10 and plugin-1.0.1-r4 and 1.0.1-r5

This really sounds like a new bug report - and i'm impressed that you've managed to keep things working with a threaded perl. grep perl5 out of the CONTENTS file in /var/db/pkg/*/irssi*/CONTENTS to see where it installed everything. Maybe you installed irssi prior to upgrading perl? Did you ever run perl-cleaner? Most of these issues sound like they would have been taken care of with a simple run of perl-cleaner, though that's not always the case.

Daniel, sorry for not looking into this for a long time.

Does this happen with silc-plugin-1.0.3 as well ?

Have you tried running perl-cleaner ?

[Comment 10 Michael Cummings (RETIRED) 2006-10-26 14:40:58 UTC]

either run perl-cleaner or reinstall irssi. The two @INC's don't match.

[Comment 11 Andrej Kacian (RETIRED) 2006-12-24 15:21:32 UTC]

Closing due to bug inactivity.
