p5-perlmagick no longer compiles

[matt.hilliard@…]

calling:

$ sudo port install p5-perlmagick

runs through installing ImageMagic, and perl and python, and X libraries and the kitchen sink

but it won't install perlmagick

The relevant console bits are attached.

Milestone Port Bugs deleted

[in-macosports@…]

See #13234. Currently, the working way to install perlmagick is 'port install ImageMagick +perl'. But it is absolutely necessary that the p5-perlmagick package is removed or turned into something that does that same thing as well!

Removing p5-perlmagick makes the most sense, but there is one port depending on it, imageindex. Adding ImageMagick to it instead would work except we can't currently depend on a variant (ticket #126). We could do the usual trick of checking for a file provided by +perl in a pre-fetch phase for imageindex. Locally I see ${prefix}/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.9/darwin-thread-multi-2level/Image/Magick.pm but that path will be a bit different depending on how perl5.8 is installed (the darwin-thread-multi-2level part).

Any movement on this bug? It just cost me an afternoon of fiddling before I found this bug report.

Replying to in-macosports@…:

Currently, the working way to install perlmagick is 'port install ImageMagick +perl'.

While the above command indeed installs /opt/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.10.1/darwin-2level/Image/Magick.pm, this location is not part of @INC (the default search path), though it should be, shouldn't it? (only .../darwin-multi-2level is in the list.)

p5-perlmagick has been updated to the latest version and compiles fine now, and the +perl variant of ImageMagick has been essentially deleted. See #25832.
