| Subject: | could not create filehandle |
Hello Andreas,
I just upgraded CPAN.pm from v1.7602 to v1.9205 and a number of
additional modules were also installed during the upgrade. But now using
v1.9205 I am running into a filehandle problem. When I try for example:
"cpan[3]> install BIRNEY/bioperl-1.4.tar.gz"
it doesn't work because "y/authors/id//B/BI/" is appended before the
name of the distribution. Therefore I get:
"Could not create filehandle for "y/authors/id/B/BI/BIRNEY/"
So gzopen cannot find the file and the installation fails. I got similar
behavior with other modules, e.g.: "cpan[1]> install Statistics::Lite".
Using the traditional method (without CPAN.pm) these modules install
without a problem. They also install perfectly with CPAN.pm v1.7602.
Does the problem look trivial to you? What would you suggest? Should I
switch back to an earlier CPAN version and if yes how can I do it?
best regards
Attila
