Description ajacoutot 2002-10-09 12:49:32 UTC
After emerging bbgallery, I launch the executable and I get this error:
$ bbgallery
Can't locate HTML/Entities.pm in @INC (@INC contains:
/usr/lib/perl5/5.6.1/i686-linux /usr/lib/perl5/5.6.1
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/i686-linux /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl .) at /usr/bin/bbgallery line 24.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/bin/bbgallery line 24.

HTML/Entities.pm can't be found in perl @INC. After a quick search, it turns out
that Entities.pm can be found in
/usr/lib/site_perl/5.6.1/i686-linux/HTML/Entities.pm (which is not in @INC).

There must be a bug in the ebuild / Makefile, and since I don't know how to add
a new path to @INC, I cannot use bbgallery.

Please fix this if you have the time... Thank you very much.

This has been a documented and addressed problem in both other bugs and the 
mailing lists. You will need to *either* emerge dev-utils/ExtUtils-MakeMaker OR 
emerge perl -r7. There was a problem with the MakeMaker module that came with 
the default perl - among other things, it was placing sandbox-created ebuilds 
into /usr/lib/site_perl instead of /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl. Emerging either of 
the two above will correct this problem for FUTURE emerges. You will need to re-
emerge the offending applications again to resolve the problem with their 
current location. This should have been caught by the perl-modules eclass, but 
on randomly rare occasions it wasn't. Sorry for the inconvenience, let me know 
if you you continue to have problems.
