Hello,

My cpan is broken...


[atma@comodino ~]$ cpan
Cannot load ExtUtils::MakeMaker: Can't locate ExtUtils/MakeMaker.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.12.4/mach /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.12.4 /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.12.4/mach /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.12.4 /usr/home/atma) at (eval 9) line 1.

I don't use perl or cpan, directly. I was trying to use irssi + sasl which needs cpan. Now I'm good with 'weechat-curses' but still many programs need cpan fixed.

Do I have uninstall recompile perl do this? I'm not sure what to do, I can't even remember if I installed the pkg using pkg_add or ports (does it make any diff anyway?).

I can't find cpan as a standalone pkg using 'make search key="cpan"' I get lots and lots of output as you can imagine.

Any ideas are more than welcome!

do you find the solution please ?
I have the same error. A loop beetween CPAN-Meta-Requirement and MakeMaker
 
Check if the missing file is elswhere on your system # find /usr/local/lib/ -name "MakeMaker.pm" and copy/move it or create a symlink to @INC/ExtUtils (you can pick any path from @INC for this). If you don't have it, you can download it from the CPAN web site. Chances are this won't be the only missing file; I've had to do this a few times following a perl upgrade.
