When i emerge mod_perl (version 1.27-r4) (after emergin apache and perl) the install script hangs with segmentation fault. This happens because the package ExtUtils-MakeMaker doesn't get installed as a dependency. I cannot seem to reproduce the problem after merging and unmerging ExtUtils-MakeMaker (and trying to unmerge/re-emerge mod_perl). Before emerging ExtUtils-MakeMaker this happened everytime I tried to install mod_perl (revision doesn't matter ie. 1.27-r* all do this). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Clean gentoo system (note! ExtUtils-MakeMaker is not installed by any dependency earlier). 1. emerge apache 2. emerge perl 3. emerge mod_perl Actual Results: STDERR outputs the following: "************* WARNING ************* Your Perl is linked with -lpthread, make sure that your httpd is built with LIBS=-lpthread ************* WARNING ************* Will run tests as User: 'nobody' Group: 'root' ./configure: line 110: 8687 Segmentation fault $my_config_sh --config-file=$my_config --config-override="$my_config_override" --build-type=$my_buildtype --display-prefix="$my_prefix" >>$my_makefileconf /bin/sh: line 1: I: command not found make[1]: [mod_perl.lo] Error 127 (ignored) make[1]: o: Command not found make[1]: [perlxsi.c] Error 127 (ignored) /bin/sh: line 1: I: command not found make[1]: [perlxsi.lo] Error 127 (ignored) /bin/sh: line 1: I: command not found make[1]: [perl_config.lo] Error 127 (ignored) /bin/sh: line 1: I: command not found make[1]: [perl_util.lo] Error 127 (ignored) /bin/sh: line 1: I: command not found make[1]: [perlio.lo] Error 127 (ignored) /bin/sh: line 1: I: command not found make[1]: [mod_perl_opmask.lo] Error 127 (ignored) make[1]: o: Command not found make[1]: [libperl.so] Error 127 (ignored) install: cannot stat `libperl.so': No such file or directory" Expected Results: ExtUtils-MakeMaker should have been emerged as a dependency before mod_perl. I found a (kind of) solution in http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11684, which was to emerge ExtUtils-MakeMaker. I'm new to gentoo, so sorry if this is something trivial or even my own mistake (I'm not new to linux, and the install went quite normally though). Thanks for your contribution! :)
