Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Axel Rose (axelrose) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: untarzime, installme fail Initial Comment: The droplets fail with several .tar.gz files from CPAN with the error message :: already exists The reason I found is the tar listing. Sometimes it look like this: Text-PDF-0.16 Text-PDF-0.16/readme.txt Text-PDF-0.16/MANIFEST .... i.e. the top level directory not ending with "/". A simple patch would look like this: foreach my $file (@files) { $file .= "/" unless $file =~ /\//; my $dir = ':' . dirname(Archive::Tar::_munge_file($file)); die "$dir already exists, will not overwrite\n" if -e $dir; } Thanks, Axel ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=107940&aid=549611&group_id=7940
