| Subject: | hangs during make test from CPAN shell |
Just attempted to install CPAN Bundle with:
cpan shell -- CPAN exploration and modules installation (v1.7602)
ReadLine support enabled
Show quoted text
cpan> reload index
#some output omitted...
You might want to try
install Bundle::CPAN
reload cpan
without quitting the current session. It should be a seamless upgrade
while we are running...
#more output omitted...
Show quoted textcpan> install Bundle::CPAN
# all dependent modules were up to date since I'd tried once before
# when it also hung and I control C'ed
# more output omitted...
Running make test
PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1 /usr/bin/perl "-MExtUtils::Command::MM" "-e"
"test_harness(0, 'blib/lib', 'blib/arch')" t/*.t
t/00signature.......ok
1/1 skipped: various reasons
t/01loadme..........ok
t/02nox.............ok
t/03pkgs............ok 1/11
hangs here. When I attempt to install CPAN outside of the shell and gets
to test 6 of t/03pkgs it starts asking me questions:
# previous output omitted...
t/03pkgs............1..12
ok 1 - Found version > 1.76 for CPAN: 1.92

CPAN: File::HomeDir loaded ok (v0.66)
Sorry, we have to rerun the configuration dialog for CPAN.pm due to
some missing parameters...
The following questions are intended to help you with the
configuration. The CPAN module needs a directory of its own to cache
important index files and maybe keep a temporary mirror of CPAN files.
This may be a site-wide or a personal directory.
I see you already have a directory
/home/bet/.cpan
Shall we use it as the general CPAN build and cache directory?
<cpan_home>
I would guess this is what is stopping CPAN installing from the CPAN shell.
This is perl, v5.8.8 built for i486-linux-gnu-thread-multi (actually
what comes with Ubuntu 7,04 Server).
