Subject: cpan as root cannot install Inline without force
Date: Tue, 13 May 2014 14:20:52 -0700
To: bug-Inline [...] rt.cpan.org
From: Jeff Janes <jeff.janes [...] gmail.com>
on CentOS6.5, perl 5.10.1, I cannot install Inline using "cpan Inline < /dev/null". I can install it with "cpan -f Inline < /dev/null", but that is less than optimal. The problem seems to be the same one as reported here: https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=65703 The taint test fails because the directory containing 'make' is removed from $ENV{PATH}. It makes sense that this happens, because of course /usr/bin/ is writable by root. But then does that mean it is just unsupported to install through cpan as root on any linux system? If that is the case, I think I would have found more documentation or complaints about that. Or is the test script supposed to give away rights, and that is not working for me for some reason? Thanks, Jeff
