Error message below: Appending installation info to /usr/lib/perl/5.14/perllocal.pod INGY/YAML-0.85.tar.gz /usr/bin/make install -- OK Alert: While trying to 'dump' YAML file '/home/cgonzalez/.cpan/build/YAML-0.85-dYJxFR.yml' with 'YAML' the following error was encountered: Undefined subroutine &main::main:: called at /usr/local/share/perl/5.14.2/YAML/Mo.pm line 5 Please Advise on fix.

Somehow managed to get YAML 0.85 installed here, and the same error is now happening when trying to install any other CPAN module. My temporary workaround has been pm-uninstall -n YAML then later installed the older version using cpan MSTROUT/YAML-0.84.tar.gz (the pm-uninstall step may not be necessary, I was trying to run some code that doesn't use YAML and this was blocking CPAN). cheers, Tom On Tue Nov 26 01:02:46 2013, itcharlie wrote: Show quoted text

I get this problem too. I can reproduce it: starting from a fresh 5.18.1 installation, I installing a prebuilt CPAN/Config.pm, then run "cpan YAML" (this being the first ever run of cpan(1) or CPAN.pm in this installation). YAML-0.85 builds, passes tests, and installs, then the output continues thus: Running make install Installing /opt/perl-5.18.1/lib/site_perl/5.18.1/YAML.pm Appending installation info to /opt/perl-5.18.1/lib/5.18.1/x86_64-linux-ld/perllocal.pod INGY/YAML-0.85.tar.gz /usr/bin/make install -- OK CPAN: YAML loaded ok (v0.85) Alert: While trying to 'dump' YAML file '/opt/perl-5.18.1/cpan/build/YAML-0.85-QLeuHP.yml' with 'YAML' the following error was encountered: Undefined subroutine &main::main:: called at /opt/perl-5.18.1/lib/site_perl/5.18.1/YAML/Mo.pm line 5. cpan(1) aborts at this point, exiting with non-zero status. If I had requested other modules too, by for example "cpan YAML Params::Classify", the other modules are not processed. However, subsequent invocations of cpan(1) install modules just fine, with the report "CPAN: YAML loaded ok (v0.85)" during the process. This has been failing since 2013-11-25, having been working before. This coincides with the release of YAML-0.85. -zefram
