hello all,
i have a web app that do a huge use of perl modules.
After upgrading, my app is broken, and i notice:
r...@koha2:~# /usr/perl5/5.8.4/bin/cpan
IO object version 1.21 does not match bootstrap parameter 1.23 at /usr/perl5/5.8.4/lib/i86pc-solaris-64int/XSLoader.pm line 91.

I suspect pkg damage.  I think someone else reported a similar
experience.

And to be clear, that package damage is likely the result of using CPAN

are you saying that it is a bad practice, adding modules in the bundled perl? the app here is koha (www.koha.org) and a huge use of perl modules. I'm one of the two people running this app in opensolaris in

If those modules install under /usr/lib/*, yes. If you can have CPAN install and deliver those modules under /usr/local/perl5 ... or perhaps /opt/perl5/locl or some other directory that doesn't belong to an existing package, then you should be ok.

the world. Does it mean that this is a bad choice and have to return the linux way?

Not sure what you mean.

One thing I'd like to see someone do as a community project is to create a patch for the CPAN module that has it create IPS packages for them and then install them as IPS packages :)

That would be a little more difficult now since no on-disk format exists, but still certainly doable.

Cheers,
