[port] [2.6.1] [Cannot install Perl5]

[seanngpack (sean ng pack)]

Hello all,

I am running macOS Catalina and I'm trying to install CMake using ports, but it breaks when trying to install Perl5.

$sudo port install cmake

I also tried installing perl5 using ports. And it gives me the same error message.

$sudo port install perl5

Here is a snippet of the main.log file I attached:

:info:build Command failed:  cd "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_macports_release_tarballs_ports_lang_perl5/perl5.28/work/perl-5.28.2" && /usr/bin/make -j12 -w all

:debug:build     (procedure "portbuild::build_main" line 8)

There is another thread that discusses my CMake issue, but it seems like that person was able to get Perl5 installed: ​https://trac.macports.org/ticket/58572#no2

Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

NEVER MIND IT WORKS NOW AFTER SOME DIGGING THROUGH THE OPEN TICKETS

sudo port clean --all perl5.28

sudo port install perl5.28 use_parallel_build=no

Same problem

update: so running the command sudo port install perl5.30 @5.30.0_1 successfully installs perl 5.30. However when I try to install other libraries such as CMake and vtk, they still break because they require perl 5.28
