@iambibhas which O/S are you installing on?
@mintsoft this is elementary, which is Ubuntu 14.04 actually.
@iambibhas I'd try putting the system package on for the moox:
@mintsoft I think that did the trick! Thanks! I'll update once the install finishes. :) Maybe we can add this to the doc too? As a dependency.
@iambibhas technically it shouldn't be required as it should be able to resolve it all from cpan & duckpan together. However, on Debian based systems things are never that simple!
@mintsoft if I want to leave this debian based OS, which OS would you suggest?
@iambibhas I actually use Debian personally! It's stability and excellent packaging more than makes up for a few issues with cpan, especially as they're usually resolvable with either installing a package or alternatively for completely separate installations, using perlbrew, in my opinion. I've found that all distros have weird problems with cpan
/npm
/pip
/gem
/pecl
/pear
etc when they compete with officially packaged modules.
So in short, I sadly have no recommendation I guess!
Ok. It finished installing. 2 system packages I had to install separately were libmoox-options-perl
and libmpfr-dev
. Thanks @mintsoft.
Just for reference, I had to install those above 2 packages on Linux Mint too, to get things working.
FWIW this is related to a bug recently introduce in ExtUtils-MakeMaker AFAICT: https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=106840
On OSX I'm running into this, not sure how to resolve right now but I don't need it. Will update if I find out any more.
We can probably open this issue until it's fixed on OSX.
This is the content of build.log -
--force
doesn't work. Any idea?
