Testing request - Mac

by ikegami (Patriarch)
on Jun 18, 2011 at 04:14 UTC ( [id://910288]=perlquestion: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

ikegami has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Could someone with a Mac try to install LWP::Protocol::AnyEvent::http for me please? Just running the tests is fine, actually.

I got a FAIL report from a CPAN tester on a Mac, and I want to see if it's an incompatibility with Macs (because nothing jumps out in the module version differences).

Replies are listed 'Best First'.

    No issues here…

    moo@cow[368]~>sudo cpanm --reinstall LWP::Protocol::AnyEvent::http --> Working on LWP::Protocol::AnyEvent::http Fetching http://search.cpan.org/CPAN/authors/id/I/IK/IKEGAMI/LWP-Proto +col-AnyEvent-http-v1.0.3.tar.gz ... OK Configuring LWP-Protocol-AnyEvent-http-v1.0.3 ... OK Building and testing LWP-Protocol-AnyEvent-http-v1.0.3 ... OK Successfully reinstalled LWP-Protocol-AnyEvent-http-v1.0.3 1 distribution installed

    …but here is everything from the original install in case it ends up helping or pointing to clues–

      Much appreciated, thanks.

    The package installed without difficulty for me as well. I had an impressive number of dependencies that needed to be handled first, and I happened to notice that at least one of them tested for the presence of a C compiler. This is not necessarily a given for all macosx users.

    It's unlikely but possible that someone might try to do a CPAN install before having installed the XCode SDK from the macosx distro -- it's easy to do, and I'd expect that all typical Perl users with macs have done it, but it's a non-default choice.

      All but one of the tests from the reporter did run fine, so that's not it.

      Thanks.

    Fine for me as well.

    Update: From the cpan report --  osname=darwin, osvers=10.7.0, archname=darwin-thread-multi-2level. Unless I'm mis-reading, 10.7.0 is the new Mac Lion OS which is still beta and will not be publicly available until some time next month. Nevermind ... I was confusing the OS version with the kernel version.

      I'll compare everything, but I don't think it's going to turn out to be related to OS or version of dependencies.

      Thanks.
