Description Mihai Pora 2005-02-06 23:59:02 UTC
I did an 'ACCEPT_KEYWORDS=~x86 emerge gnomemeeting".
All dependencies were succesfully installe except gnomemeeting 1.2 which produced an error during .configure : XML::Parser was missing.
I installed XML::Parser module using 'perl -MCPAN -e 'install XML::Parser'. After that the error disapeared and compilation went on.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. prerequisite : must not have XML::Parser perl module installed
2. ACCEPT_KEYWORDS=~x86 emerge gnomemeeting => error
3. to solve the problem run : perl -MCPAN -e 'install XML::Parser

Actual Results:  
step 2 => error
step 3 => compilation begins

Expected Results:  
XML::Parser module should have been detected as a dependency for gnomemeeting
1.2 and installed by emerge.
Comment 1 Mihai Pora 2005-02-07 00:14:03 UTC
After installing XML::Parser from CPAN, gnomemeeting failed to compile with this error (unrelated to the previour provblem) :

Please don't pre-assign bugs unless you know the proper place to put them.

Bug caused by problem in perl install

Runing with CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu", perl puts XML::Parser and friends
in /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.6/i386-linux rather than in
/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.6/i686-linux

I tried:
 - downloading XML::Parser from CPAN
 - symbolic link from /usr/.../i686-linux/XML to ../i386-linux/XML [ls resolves

   files, but perl can't]
 - cp -rp i386-linux/XML/ i686-linux/

none of these worked.  [perl -MXML::Parser -e shell fails to find either
   XML::Parser or XML::Parser:Expat.

Anyway, the perl install is munged for CHOST=i686-pc-linux-gnu

Bug caused by problem in perl install

I did the following and the problem went away:
 1. rm -rf /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl
 2. emerge --unmerge perl
 3. emerge perl
 4. emerge --unmerge dev-perl/XML-Parser
 5. emerge dev-perl/XML-Parser

I don't know which steps were necessary, but XML::Parser is finally installed
in the right place and gdm is installing.
Comment 5 Andrew Corrigan 2006-04-15 06:27:04 UTC
When I was updating my system, it got to emerge-ing intltool at which point I got the same exact error regarding XML::Parser.

However, I just followed part of Mike Howard's recommendation and did
emerge --unmerge dev-perl/XML-Parser
emerge --merge dev-perl/XML-Parser

then went back to emerge --deep --newuse --update world

and intltool was emerged fine.
Comment 6 Carsten Lohrke (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-04-16 09:06:54 UTC
The problem is, that you did not ran the perl-cleaner script after updating perl. This affects all perl related packages, so do it.
