I am having difficulty installing some cpan modules as part of the
ASSP anti-spam application. I am running under MacOS X 10.3.9 and
have installed the developer tools (XCode). I did 'sudo -s' first,
then csh, then:
setenv MANPATH /usr/share/man
cpan Net::RBLClient
It goes for a while and downloads the module, but has problems
installing it:
CPAN.pm: Going to build A/AB/ABLUM/Net-RBLClient-0.2.tar.gz
Warning: prerequisite Net::DNS::Packet 0 not found.
Writing Makefile for Net::RBLClient
---- Unsatisfied dependencies detected during
[A/AB/ABLUM/Net-RBLClient-0.2.tar.gz] -----
Net::DNS::Packet
Shall I follow them and prepend them to the queue
of modules we are processing right now? [yes]
Running make test
Delayed until after prerequisites
Running make install
Delayed until after prerequisites
Running install for module Net::DNS::Packet
The module Net::DNS::Packet isn't available on CPAN.
Either the module has not yet been uploaded to CPAN, or it is
temporary unavailable. Please contact the author to find out
more about the status. Try 'i Net::DNS::Packet'.
Running make for A/AB/ABLUM/Net-RBLClient-0.2.tar.gz
Is already unwrapped into directory
/Users/jlbrown/.cpan/build/RBLCLient-0.2
CPAN.pm: Going to build A/AB/ABLUM/Net-RBLClient-0.2.tar.gz
-- NOT OK
Running make test
Can't test without successful make
Running make install
make had returned bad status, install seems impossibe
Does anyone have any ideas on how I can get this to work?
Thanks,
James.
PS. Sorry if it is a real newbie question!
