Installing Catalyst::Devel

marvi has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Solved it! I had some old environment variables for Perl libraries.

Hi, it feels strange coming back to Perlmonks after all these years, but also very fun to see what I remember from my Perl days.

I'm trying to install Catalyst::Devel 1.39 on my Mac. I just installed Perlbrew (very nice change from last time fighting with dependencies in vendor Perl install) and cpanm.

perlbrew install perl-5.18.4
perlbrew switch perl-5.18.4
perlbrew install-cpanm
cpanm Catalyst::Devel
[download]

I get a bunch of failed dependencies:

! Installing the dependencies failed: Module 'Module::Install' is not 
+installed, Module 'Catalyst::Plugin::Static::Simple' is not installed
+, Module 'MooseX::Emulate::Class::Accessor::Fast' is not installed, M
+odule 'Catalyst::Action::RenderView' is not installed, Module 'Cataly

! Bailing out the installation for Catalyst-Devel-1.39.

Anyone know what might be the issue?

Is this a brand new perlbrew intsall? Did you source the config file and/or ensure it is in your .bashrc or .bash_profile? `source ~/perl5/perlbrew/etc/bashrc` [download] I was unable to recreate your issue, but i can only test on Ubuntu right now, not Mac: `Building Catalyst-Devel-1.39 ... OK Successfully installed Catalyst-Devel-1.39 90 distributions installed` [download] That is one heck of a tool chain! :) jeffa L-LL-L--L-LL-L--L-LL-L-- -R--R-RR-R--R-RR-R--R-RR B--B--B--B--B--B--B--B-- H---H---H---H---H---H--- (the triplet paradiddle with high-hat)	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Brand new and yes, I sourced.	[reply]

Anyone know what might be the issue? You have to read the build log to find out, what you posted is merely a summary of things that didn't get installed	[reply]

It was very confusing. One line said something like "Module Foo::Bar installed successfully" and the next line was "missing module Foo::Bar". Turns out I had some old variables in my env I needed to remove. Back to coding.	[reply]
