I try to use MCPAN to install perl module used by razor, dcc, spamassassin, …
So I do
[root@server1]# perl -MCPAN -e shell
And have this error
Undefined value assigned to typeglob at (eval 14) line 15, <RC> line 11.
Warning [/etc/inputrc line 11]:
Invalid variable `mark-symlinked-directories'
cpan shell -- CPAN exploration and modules installation (v1.76)
ReadLine support enabled
My OS is a CentOS 3.1
So I can’t install any perl modules
(I have a lot off errors)
can you post more of the errors pascal. on one of our centos boxes it starts clean but when you run the CPAN module for the first time you have to be ready to answer a TON of quetsions :).
And for the record this worked for me on CentOS:
perl -MCPAN -e shell
Honestly it’s almost easier to just grab / compile the tarballs yourself pascal if you’re not familiar with the CPAN mod/interface, and even lately I’ve been choosing the compile/install manually myself as well.
In fact I have already answered to all the conf questions at the beginning.
Then I have install the last cpan module : install bundle::cpan
And after that, I had this error.
I can’t give you more as the error comes when I launch CPAN in shell mode. It comes at the begining
Sago answer me that :
I’ve commented out the line: mark-symlinked-directories
from your /etc/inputrc file
This appeared to correct the problem which you were having.
