Package: perl Version: 5.10.1-1 User: debian-p...@lists.debian.org Usertags: perl-5.10.1-transition
As preparations for getting Perl 5.10.1 into sid, I was testing a few rebuilds when I hit this with libcgi-xml-perl: /usr/bin/make install PREFIX=/home/niko/tmp/libcgi-xml-perl-0.1/debian/tmp/usr make[1]: Entering directory `/home/niko/tmp/libcgi-xml-perl-0.1' !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ERROR: Can't create '/usr/share/man/man3' Do not have write permissions on '/usr/share/man/man3' !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! at -e line 1 make[1]: *** [pure_vendor_install] Error 13 The problem is that PREFIX can't be overridden at install time anymore. This is http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=47396 and upstream is disinclined to fix it: > Use DESTDIR. Its been six years since it was added. Debian already has a new > enough MakeMaker. See also #534895: cdbs was recently changed to use DESTDIR instead of PREFIX. I don't have numbers of affected packages yet. A simple grep will probably catch most of them. -- Niko Tyni nt...@debian.org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
