Subject: Not a bug exactly, but a problem installing Text::CSV::Slurp with cpanminus
Date: Wed, 04 Jan 2012 11:28:47 +0100

Not sure if this is a problem with Text::CSV::Slurp, cpanminus or some mirrors specifically, but lately I have been having intermittent errors when trying to install Text::CSV::Slurp using cpanminus. The problem is with certain mirrors, but I'm not sure why (I assumed all mirrors should be more or less equal?). Below is part of the output I get from two separate runs to install Text::CSV::Slurp, using two --mirror clauses, the first fixed at xs4all.nl (closest to me), the second the fallback to search.cpan.org. As you can see the first try fails, while the second succeeds.

OK Successfully installed Text-CSV-Slurp-0.9 1 distribution installed Installed package Text::CSV::Slurp I'm assuming the second run succeeds because the search.cpan.org geo location aware redirector points me to a mirror that apparantly does have the correct files. Is there any way to find out what's really going on and why some mirrors seem not to have (the correct?) Text:CSV::Slurp. One thing I noticed is that the downloads above all go for 'authors/id/R/RO/ROBBIEBOW/', while the download link on the cpan website points to 'authors/id/B/BA/BABF/Text-CSV-Slurp-0.9.tar.gz'? Thanks for any hints, tips, reply, etc... Thijs

Text::CSV::Slurp has a new maintainer (BABF) and so its location on CPAN has changed (as you noticed). It looks like some of the mirrors have not updated to reflect recent changes and that's why you're getting successes. It also looks like your indexes are out of date, hence when you try an install, cpanminus is looking for the obsolete path on the mirrors. If you can refresh your indexes, then try an install, see if it looks for the current path i.e. authors/id/B/BA/BABF/Text-CSV-Slurp-0.9.tar.gz If that doesn't work, I'm stumped. Maybe the CPAN Meta DB is not up to date?

As a CPAN admin I got informed about the unindexed distro. So I looked up on admin emails and found that the uploader BABF got an email that the file could not be indexed because it belonged to user ROBBIEBOW. That was on 19 Dec 2011. In the meantime BABF became owner of the distro. PAUSE does not automatically re-index distros when an ownership changes, so it remained unindexed when the ownership changed. So I took the natural next step and asked PAUSE to re-index BABF/Text-CSV-Slurp-0.9.tar.gz and so it did. Problem for this single file solved. If there are others that need similar treatment and you cannot figure out how to proceed, please let me know.

Thanks, Andreas. I transferred 3 files from my old ID (ROBBIEBOW) to my new one (BABF) but I think this was the only one where the streams crossed. How would I check the othe two? Thanks again
