Bug 26948 – DBD-mysql - make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Mark Knecht 2003-08-19 14:43:09 UTC]

While doing an 'emerge --deep --update world' the process stopped when the make
process decided something was wrong and it couldn't build DBD-mysql.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge --deep --update DBD-mysql

Actual Results:  
Gentoo2 etc # emerge --deep --update DBD-mysql
Calculating dependencies ...done!
>>> emerge (1 of 1) dev-perl/DBD-mysql-2.1027 to /
>>> md5 src_uri ;-) DBD-mysql-2.1027.tar.gz
>>> Unpacking source...
>>> Unpacking DBD-mysql-2.1027.tar.gz to /var/tmp/portage/DBD-mysql-2.1027/work
>>> Source unpacked.
I will use the following settings for compiling and testing:

  cflags        (mysql_config) = -I'/usr/include/mysql'
  libs          (mysql_config) = -L/usr/lib/mysql -lmysqlclient -lz -lcrypt
-lnsl -lm -L/usr/lib -lssl -lcrypto
  nocatchstderr (default     ) = 0
  ssl           (guessed     ) = 1
  testdb        (default     ) = test
  testhost      (default     ) = 
  testpassword  (default     ) = 
  testuser      (default     ) = 

To change these settings, see 'perl Makefile.PL --help' and
'perldoc INSTALL'.

please re-emerge dev-perl/DBI - looks like it isn't there

[Comment 2 Mark Knecht 2003-08-25 08:58:38 UTC]

Thanks for looking at this. OK, by removing DBI and reinstalling it the DBD-mysql installed correctly, but I don;t understand why. what was broken?

Gentoo2 etc # emerge --deep --update -p dev-perl/DBI

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating dependencies ...done!

Gentoo2 etc # emerge -Cp dev-perl/DBI

So I did 'emerge -C dev-perl/DBI' and then proceed to try the install again:



<SNIP>

Gentoo2 etc # emerge -p --deep --update DBD-mysql

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

[ebuild  N    ] dev-perl/DBI-1.37  
[ebuild     U ] dev-perl/DBD-mysql-2.1027 [2.1013-r1] 

Gentoo2 etc # 

DBI-1.37 gets installed, and then DBD-mysql installs correctly.

Why didn't this work before?

Anyway, thanks!

Life is weird sometimes :)
