Subject: ModPerl::MethodLookup needs version
I have the 2.0.4 yum RPM installed in CentOS 5.3. perl -e 'use CPAN; CPAN::Shell->install(CPAN::Shell->r)' ... ModPerl::MethodLookup undef 0.009 GOZER/mod_perl-2.0.4.tar.gz Then it downloads and tries to build mod_perl-2.0.4 from source. But it is already installed.
It has a version: perl -MModPerl::MethodLookup -e 'print $ModPerl::MethodLookup::VERSION' 2.000005 Suggest that per the Fedora Core perl maintainer's recommendation, you either use CPAN, or Yum to install perl modules. Mixing them will not deliver satisfactory results.

That would be great, too bad there are not very many CPAN modules available in yum for CentOS and/or it's not easy to package them, and that some essential non-perl packages depend on perl lib yum packages, so there's no way to do one or the other when building an app - they have to be mixed. I got around this by having a list of packages that get skipped in my script that installs/upgrades the CPAN packages. Thanks! Mark

Thanks for the feedback Mark. Sounds like more Perl modules for Centos could be a good TPF grant challenge. On Tue, Oct 19, 2010 at 10:25 AM, Mark Hedges via RT <bug-mod_perl@rt.cpan.org> wrote: Show quoted text

Hmmm, MethodLookup.pm is not in the MANIFEST for some reason...
ModPerl/MethodLookup.pm was not being shipped with the distro, I just resolved this issue. Thank you for reporting it; took a while to get my full attention. phred@pooky ~/dev/svn/modperl/mod_perl-2.0 $ phred@pooky ~/nges lib/ModPerl/Manifest.ppm m Sending Changes Sending lib/ModPerl/Manifest.pm Transmitting file data ..
