#17895 closed defect (duplicate)

Perl 5.8.9 cannot find XML::Parser

Reported by: ralph@… Owned by: ghosthound
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 1.7.0
Keywords: Cc: MarcusCalhoun-Lopez (Marcus Calhoun-Lopez), dbevans (David B. Evans)
Port: perl5.8

Description

Yesterday I did an update, and perl5.8 got updated to perl 5.8.9.

Today, I tried updating various ports, and in each case got a failure along the lines of

Error: Target org.macports.configure returned: configure failure: shell command " cd "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_gnome_gconf/work/GConf-2.24.0" && ./configure --prefix=/opt/local " returned error 1
...
checking for XML::Parser... configure: error: XML::Parser perl module is required for intltool

Now, p5-xml-parser is properly installed, and this all worked before. I suppose p5-xml-parser must just be in a place where perl 5.8.9 cannot find it.

I guess the same may be true for other perl modules too...

We are at 5.15 and the problem is still there, or back — what a mess.
