Hello,
During the install in CPAN of Log::Log4perl, I got a Recursive dependency
detected error, which I managed to reduce to:
Scalar::Util > Test::More > Test::Harness > File::Spec > Scalar::Util
(exact output from CPAN below).
I am totally puzzled on how I can proceed now. Googling CPAN Recursive
dependency didn't provide useful information, ASFAICS.
Even knowing which one of those four modules is the culprit wouldn't help me
here.
My context: I have slowly been developping my software on my Mac for about
three months. Doing so, I have CPAN installed many modules over those three
months, including Log4perl. I am now trying to move my code to the
deployment machine, where I need to CPAN install all the modules I use. This
is where I get the above error.
My target machine is a Linux CentOS distribution, though this shouldn't make
any difference, since CPAN is supposedly platform agnostic.
I'd appreciate any pointer.
