[Koha] [Koha-devel] MIME::Lite issues

[Chadwick, John, DCA]

There was nothing odd about the install. I do want to clarify that I
download via git yesterday.

I am installing on Ubuntu 8.04 and I did run into what is really a non
issue with imagemagick. On my previous test systems I did an apt-get for
perlmagick and that took care of things. Now I not only have to do the
install for perlmagick, but I have to add perlmagick via cpan.

Your mention of sendmail though may be the culprit. I had to install
sendmail to get the MIME::Lite, still didn't get rid of the error, but
it allowed me to install a package via apt-get. I normally don't install
sendmail on these Ubuntu boxes.

Hi Joe - thanks for helping.

Yes, I find it very odd, too.

Also, I hadn't noticed the first time, but John is installing RC1 (not
the latest git repository). I hadn't added the explicit MIME::Lite
3.01 requirement before RC1 was released. It just went in the other
day to git and hasn't made it into any release at all.

So, I'm not sure what was requiring MIME::Lite. Perhaps it was an
implicit requirement that we got by requiring something else. The
other two MIME::* modules that we require are in core, so they're not
requiring it. I can't tell that Mail::Sendmail requires it. I'm at a
lost to explain what is requiring it for him.

That puzzlement aside, the reason that he appears to have it
installed, but his install script doesn't see it is still a question.
Perhaps he has two versions of perl installed, with different sets of
modules installed. Or, perhaps there is some problem with his @INC.

John, is there anything else odd or special about the environment that
you can tell us? As you can see, we're sort of grasping at straws
here, but would really like to figure this out. Is this a pretty stock
Ubuntu installation, or has it been changed in any significant way?
What version of perl is this (perl -v)?
