I won't deny g-cpan is having trouble here - but not sure there is anything that can be done for it since the downloaded file in no way matches the name of the module to install. That said - ParseDate is actually provided by dev-perl/Time-modules, so the fault here is more with cpan 02packages than with g-cpan (for this particular case). |
g-cpan.pl fails on ParseDate / frogbak with the message "Couldn't turn 'M/MU/MUIR/scripts/frogbak.tar.gz' into a directory name" I tried making g-cpan.pl 's portage_dir sub a little smarter. It got farther, but still didn't install: --- /usr/bin/g-cpan.pl.old 2004-07-04 11:27:26.777528976 -0700 +++ /usr/bin/g-cpan.pl 2004-07-04 11:30:16.756688216 -0700 @@ -145,8 +145,13 @@ $file =~ tr/_/-/; # turn this into a directory name suitable for portage tree - return undef unless ( $file =~ m|.*/(.*)-[^-]+\.| ); - return $1; + if ( $file =~ m|.*/(.*)-[^-]+\.| ) { + return $1; + } elsif ( $file =~ m|.*/([^.]*)\.| ) { + return $1; + } else { + return undef; + } } sub create_ebuild { Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: # g-cpan.pl ParseDate Actual Results: # g-cpan.pl ParseDate mkdir /tmp/perl-modules_22011 mkdir /tmp/perl-modules_22011/dev-perl CPAN: Storable loaded ok Going to read /root/.cpan/Metadata Database was generated on Sat, 03 Jul 2004 22:05:10 GMT Couldn't turn 'M/MU/MUIR/scripts/frogbak.tar.gz' into a directory name # Expected Results: Build & install the ParseDate module.
