Re^6: Fresh perl install

then it tries to install 5 dependencies all unsuccesfully

If you can get that 5th dependency to install, then the other modules (that depend upon it) might then install.

What happens if you try to 'cpan install' that 5th dependency ?
Are you familiar with the manual installation process - where, instead of running 'cpan install' you download and unpack the source tarball, cd to its top-level folder and run 'perl Makefile.PL', 'make test' and 'make install' ?

(I'm not a macs user, btw. The above approach merely outlines the way *I* would go about trying to understand and solve the problem)

Cheers,
Rob

thank you so much for your help:) I magaged to solve this, I looked into perlbrew deeper installed a new perl 5.14.0 and installed cpan there and cpanm, I only have to include a library in perlscripts, but the install works without any problems now:) The 5th dependency would fail on make install and then quit it,I am not but now that is not necessary anymore. again thanks so much:) I mean it did figure it out but having backup from you guys made me confident enough to go with perlbrew	[reply]
