build-perl-modules fails due to missing AppConfig
Last modified: 2011-03-16 04:39:09 UTC
Using August 2 nightly. ============================================================================= <..snip..> Downloading (using lwp) Template-Toolkit-2.13.tar.gz from http://svn.slimdevices.com/vendor/src to: /usr/local/slimserver/nightly/SlimServer_6_1_x_v2005-08-02 Uncompressing.. Configuring.. /usr/bin/perl Makefile.PL TT_DOCS=n TT_SPLASH=n TT_THEME=n TT_EXAMPLES=n TT_EXAMPLES=n TT_EXTRAS=n TT_QUIET=y TT_ACCEPT=y TT_DBI=n TT_LATEX=n The Template Toolkit requires that the AppConfig module (version 1.55 or later) first be installed. This is used by the 'ttree' program for reading command line options and configuration files. It is available from CPAN: http://www.cpan.org/authors/Andy_Wardley/ Warning: prerequisite AppConfig 1.55 not found. Building.. /bin/sh: line 0: cd: xs: No such file or directory make: *** [subdirs] Error 1 Couldn't find a valid dynamic library for Template-Toolkit-2.13.tar.gz - something is wrong. Exiting! ============================================================================= I tried to work around this, but it since it seems that AppConfig does not generate a library (.so), there is not much I can do. The build-perl-modules script only seems to be interested in moving the .so files into the CPAN directory, and seems to ignore the .pm files entirely.
AppConfig is not required. It's just a warning. You have something else going on. Can you compile TT manually? perl Makefile.PL; make; make test
I went and got the latest nightly again, and it seems to work ok now. Now idea what was causing the problems.
