[gentoo-perl] [g-cpan] last call for bugs

[Michael Cummings]

Mostly :)

OK, anyone have any bugs (functional issues) with the current state of g-cpan? 
There's of course always room for improvement, but are there any functional 
issues remaining? I'd like to wrap up the new man page in the next day or so 
and package it for portage. We can always upgrade/add to it later, this isn't 
supposed to stop any thinking/tinkering, I'm just anxious to split the tree.

Thanks,

-Mike

Erhm yes, juste found a big one (but should be easy to correct)

Context : 
- running as user (member of portage group)
- no ~/.cpan
- PORTDIR_OVERLAY=/usr/local/portage (drwxr-xr-x   2 root root)

when I run a g-cpan -u, i got :

####################################################"
cab@hoki ~/gentoo/gentoo-perl/trunk/bin $ ./g-cpan -u
* No CPAN Config found, auto-generating a basic one
in /home/cab/.cpan/CPAN
mkdir /home/cab/.cpan
mkdir /home/cab/.cpan/CPAN
Use of uninitialized value in -d at ./g-cpan line 692 (#1)
    (W uninitialized) An undefined value was used as if it were already
    defined.  It was interpreted as a "" or a 0, but maybe it was a
mistake.
    To suppress this warning assign a defined value to your variables.

    To help you figure out what was undefined, perl tells you what
operation
    you used the undefined value in.  Note, however, that perl optimizes
your
    program and the operation displayed in the warning may not
necessarily
    appear literally in your program.  For example, "that $foo" is
    usually optimized into "that " . $foo, and the warning will refer to
    the concatenation (.) operator, even though there is no . in your
    program.

mkdir /usr/local/portage/perl-gcpan
Uncaught exception from user code:
        mkdir /usr/local/portage/perl-gcpan: Permission non accordée
at ./g-cpan line 194
 at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.6/File/Path.pm line 153
        File::Path::mkpath('/usr/local/portage/perl-gcpan', 1, 493)
called at ./g-cpan line 194

##############################

btw, when i run it the second time :

##############################
cab@hoki ~/gentoo/gentoo-perl/trunk/bin $ ./g-cpan -u
mkdir /usr/local/portage/perl-gcpan
Uncaught exception from user code:
        mkdir /usr/local/portage/perl-gcpan: Permission non accordée
at ./g-cpan line 194
 at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.6/File/Path.pm line 153
        File::Path::mkpath('/usr/local/portage/perl-gcpan', 1, 493)
called at ./g-cpan line 194
#############################

typical permission problem ;p
however there's also this unitialised thing on the first run.. ;)

just reporting, can't fix tonight ;p

OK, the "fix" will be posted soon. I didn't want to add another module to the 
overhead (File::Temp would be sooooooo nice for what I want), but basically I 
added a loop to go through all of the overlays and confirm you can write to 
at least one of them - and the first one you can write to is the one you use 
in the session. And if you can't write to any of them, we exit with an error, 
because there's not much point in being able to use overlays if you can't 
write to a single one.
