+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #711486 +++ Description of problem: The perl-CPANPLUS package is missing the perl-ExtUtils-MakeMaker package dependency. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): perl-CPANPLUS-0.90-157.fc15.noarch.rpm How reproducible: Not tried. Steps to Reproduce: 1.Install perl-CPANPLUS 2.Remove perl-ExtUtils-MakeMaker 3.run 'cpanp' Actual results: Can't locate ExtUtils/MakeMaker.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/local/lib64/perl5 /usr/local/share/perl5 /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib64/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 .) at /usr/share/perl5/IPC/Cmd.pm line 210. Expected results: Should start normally Additional info: --- Additional comment from ppisar on 2011-06-07 17:55:27 CEST --- The CPANMINUS is part of perl in Fedora: $ rpm -qf $(type -p cpanp) --qf '%{SOURCERPM}\n' perl-5.12.3-157.fc15.src.rpm --- Additional comment from mmaslano on 2011-06-07 18:19:25 CEST --- This will be fixed in next update. Thank you for your report. --- Additional comment from dan on 2011-06-07 19:44:22 CEST --- Thanks. I'm not sure if this is the correct place to report/fix this, but when I installed a module (DBD::Oracle) using cpanp, it failed with a gcc dependency. Do you think that gcc should also be a dependency of perl-CPANPLUS? --- Additional comment from mmaslano on 2011-06-08 09:20:58 CEST --- Not sure, if it's good idea. For other packages you could need mysql or C++ compiler. --- Additional comment from ppisar on 2011-10-06 13:10:04 CEST --- (In reply to comment #0) > > Steps to Reproduce: > 1.Install perl-CPANPLUS > 2.Remove perl-ExtUtils-MakeMaker > 3.run 'cpanp' > > Actual results: > Can't locate ExtUtils/MakeMaker.pm in @INC (@INC contains: > /usr/local/lib64/perl5 /usr/local/share/perl5 /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl > /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib64/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 .) at > /usr/share/perl5/IPC/Cmd.pm line 210. > This is about perl-IPC-Cmd should require perl(ExtUtils::MakeMaker). --- Additional comment from ppisar on 2011-10-06 13:13:28 CEST --- Fixed as perl-5.14.0-161.fc16 in F16 and higher. --- Additional comment from ppisar on 2011-10-06 13:40:23 CEST --- F14 not affected. --- Additional comment from ppisar on 2011-10-06 13:48:26 CEST --- F15 not affected.
