Subject: [gentoo-perl] perl-5.18 required…
Date: Fri, 6 Sep 2013 03:11:01 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130906001101.GA6168@home.power> (raw)

Hi!

I prefer to use latest CPAN modules, so I've in /etc/portage/package.keywords:

    perl-core/*
    dev-perl/*
    virtual/perl-*

This works fine until today, when I notice several ~arch packages require
perl-5.18 (which I didn't plan to install until it will be marked stable
in portage, and which can't be installed anyway because of several
conflicts). To fix this I've to add into /etc/portage/package.mask:

    # require perl-5.18
    =virtual/perl-ExtUtils-CBuilder-0.280.210
    =virtual/perl-ExtUtils-ParseXS-3.220.0
    =virtual/perl-IO-1.280.0
    =virtual/perl-Perl-OSType-1.3.0
    =virtual/perl-CPAN-2.0.0

Maybe it makes more sense to hardmask such packages in portage, at least
until perl-5.18 will be ready to install without conflicts on ~arch?
