Trying to install Perl module Spreadsheet::XLSX fails with the following output: # g-cpan -i "Spreadsheet::XLSX" -Sorry, we have to rerun the configuration dialog for CPAN.pm due to some missing parameters... Will write to <</root/.cpan/CPAN/MyConfig.pm>> Normally CPAN.pm keeps config variables in memory and changes need to be saved in a separate 'o conf commit' command to make them permanent between sessions. If you set the 'auto_commit' option to true, changes to a config variable are always automatically committed to disk. <auto_commit> Always commit changes to config variables to disk? [no] no Please remember to call 'o conf commit' to make the config permanent!

The generate ebuild's filename is "[...]g-cpan/perl-gcpan/Spreadsheet-XLSX-0.13-withoutworldwriteables/Spreadsheet-XLSX-0.13-withoutworldwriteables-.ebuild" On CPAN, there seem to be two different releases of this module: "Spreadsheet-XLSX-0.13" and "Spreadsheet-XLSX-0.13-withoutworldwriteables". Both have the same day of release (16 May 2010) for release 0.13, but the latter one is considered the "latest release" Reproducible: Always
