[gentoo-user] missing dependencies

[gentoo-user] missing dependencies

Hi All,

It has been for a while, now: every now and then, when updating a perl
module, it fails to emerge.  Checking the log, it is possible to see
something like this, when I tied to update dev-perl/File-MimeInfo :

...
Checking prerequisites...
  requires:
    !  File::BaseDir is not installed
    !  File::DesktopEntry is not installed
...

Then I checked to see, and both dev-perl/File-BaseDir and
dev-perl/File-DesktopEntry are really not installed and are not requested
for the dev-perl/File-MimeInfo update.

At first I thought it was a one and only case.  But as time goes by, there
has been perl packages that refuse to emerge at first, and then, checking
the emerge log, finding missing modules and manually emerging them,
everything goes as it should.

Does anyone have a clue on where did I miss them?

Thanks and best regards
Francisco

Chances are you didn't. The ebuild should install any dependencies - if
it does not you should file a bug report.

Hi Neil

That's what I thought at first. But then it was just on perl modules, and
they kept appearing once in a while.  That's why I think I missed something.

David pointed out something, I'm going to try that and see what happens.

Thanks
Francisco

You need to run perl-cleaner to rebuild perl modules after a perl update.

emerge perl-cleaner if neecessary
perl-cleaner --all -p
to check
and perl-cleaner --all
do do the work.

Ouch!  perl-cleaner found 131 packages (5 upgrades, 126 reinstalls).  I
guess that was the thing I missed :-D

Thanks again, Dave.
