Mac::Carbon installation woes
Hi folks, Some late night reading of the latest Perl Journal got led me to try installing Mac::Carbon, on the road to installing Mac::Glue. Trouble ensued... I'm running OS 10.3.8 with Xtools 1.5, GCC 3.3, and Perl 5.8.0 Whether I use the CPAN shell or try a manual installation I get the following error on make: make[1]: *** No rule to make target `../xsubpps/typemap', needed by `AppleEvents.c'. Stop. make: *** [subdirs] Error 2 The list archives and Google both point to an earlier thread from April which referenced the same error but had no clear resolution. Has anyone else seen this? Thanks, Sergej

Using CPAN to install DBI on Tiger
it is possible it is down but when I go to install DBI I get the following error: cpan install DBI CPAN: Storable loaded ok Going to read /Users/robert/.cpan/Metadata Running install for module DBI The module DBI 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 DBI'. cpan When I first started the cpan shell I chose the easy no to let it try to autoconfigure itself. Could that be the problem? Or is it currently not available? Robert
