LWP is not corrupt; Tar programs are tar programs ... get a newer one... try ptar -Czxvf ...

osx - Linux / OS X tar incompatibility – tarballs created on OS X give errors when untarred in Linux - Super User

HI! And thanks for getting back to me. Your ptar suggestion worked like a charm! But when I got past perl Makefile.PL to make and then make test, LWP complained that I was missing a couple of perl modules:

HTTP::Daemon
WWW::RobotRules
[download]

So then I tried installing those using CPAN and that worked! So then I tried perl Makefile.PL, make and make test again and this is where the process is leaving me:

I think the problem at this point is with one of the HTTP modules. But I don't really know how to approach that error. Any help or monk wisdom here would be appreciated!

There are tickets on this problem rt://94844, rt://53714.

Release tarballs ought to be sanitized (single toplevel folder; sane permissions, times; stripped or plain usernames/uids).
Also, for maximum compatibility, it is recommended that ustar format be selected:

tar --format ustar ...

Ok thanks guys! I've actually gotten over the hurdle of getting LWP installed.


[root@uszmpaplp005lc ~]# perl -e 'while (<@INC>) { while (<$_/*.pm>) {
+ print "$_\n"; } }'  | grep -i lwp

And I'm now to a point where I can attempt to install SVN::Core. And when I do I cam running into a new error:


checking for APR-util... no
configure: WARNING: APRUTIL not found
The Apache Portable Runtime Utility (APRUTIL) library cannot be found.
Either install APRUTIL on this system and supply the appropriate
--with-apr-util option

or

get it with SVN and put it in a subdirectory of this source:

   svn co \
    http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/apr/apr-util/branches/1.3.x \
    apr-util

Run that right here in the top level of the Subversion tree.
Afterwards, run apr-util/buildconf in that subdirectory and
then run configure again here.

configure: error: no suitable APRUTIL found
configuring SVN failed at inc/My/SVN/Builder.pm line 118, <STDIN> line
+ 3.
    Something went wrong with the Subversion configuration.
    Please attempt to correct it and re-run Build.PL.

  /usr/local/bin/perl Build.PL -- NOT OK

It looks like at this point the installation process can't find my APRUTIL install.

I do have RPM installs of apr and apr-util installed.


root@uszmpaplp005lc Alien-SVN-v1.7.17.1# rpm -qa | grep apr
apr-1.2.7-11.el5_6.5
apr-util-1.4.1-2.1
apr-devel-1.2.7-11.el5_6.5



Can someone please help me get past this point? Thanks
