Description Alan 2004-05-05 11:21:04 UTC

I'm trying to get Apache::Embperl running via the ebuild available in bugzilla and it requires Apache::SessionX.   Trying to install this via g-cpan.pl Apache::SessionX but get the following:

root@master:/etc/apache/conf# g-cpan.pl Apache::SessionX

mkdir /tmp/perl-modules_25887/dev-perl

Checking configuration...
Storage 'Oracle' is unavailable because DBD::Oracle is not installed on your system
Storage 'Sybase' is unavailable because DBD::Sybase is not installed on your system

The following ways to store session are available on your system:
 - DB_File             : DB_File
 - File                : File, use semaphore for locking
 - FileFile            : File, use lockfiles
 - Mysql               : MySQL, use semaphore for locking
 - MysqlMysql          : MySQL, use MySQL for locking
 - Postgres            : Postgres

You can now specify the configuration parameters for every storage.
Apache::SessionX uses this for testing your system and stores it for later
use in your application. You can override these default parameters anytime
at runtime. You can change them by rerunning Makefile.PL.

If you don't plan to use different storages for session, 
only say Yes to the one storage you want to use.

Would you like to configure DB_File (DB_File)(y/n) [y]n

Would you like to configure File, use semaphore for locking (File)(y/n) [y]y
Directory []/tmp

Would you like to configure File, use lockfiles (FileFile)(y/n) [y]n

Would you like to configure MySQL, use semaphore for locking (Mysql)(y/n) [y]n

Would you like to configure MySQL, use MySQL for locking (MysqlMysql)(y/n) [y]n

Would you like to configure Postgres (Postgres)(y/n) [y]n

Comment 1 Jason Rhinelander 2004-05-09 17:57:24 UTC

Created attachment 31077 [details, diff]
Adds support for alpha, beta, rc & pre module versions

The attached g-cpan.pl patch fixes this up by turning it into a
portage-compatible Apache-SessionX-2.00_beta5.ebuild format instead of
Apache-SessionX-2.00b5.ebuild.	It also adds support for 'a' suffixes (alpha),
rc suffixes, and pre suffixes.	I should point out, however, that it's quite
rare to encounter module versions with these suffixes.

Patches from 79914 fix this. Will be in next release.
