wml @2.0.11_3, fails to execute with LWP::Simple.pm error

[hahn.seb@…]

Hey, trying to compile a wml file, I get:

ePerl:Error: Perl parsing error (interpreter rc=2)

---- Contents of STDERR channel: ---------
Can't locate LWP/Simple.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /opt/local/lib/wml/perl/lib /opt/local/lib/wml/perl/lib/darwin-thread-multi-2level /opt/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.12.5/darwin-thread-multi-2level /opt/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.12.5 /opt/local/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.12.5/darwin-thread-multi-2level /opt/local/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.12.5 /opt/local/lib/perl5/5.12.5/darwin-thread-multi-2level /opt/local/lib/perl5/5.12.5 /opt/local/lib/perl5/site_perl /opt/local/lib/perl5/vendor_perl .) at /var/folders/pw/q34rdc055cg701h9z61nt67h0000gn/T//wml.27817.tmp1.wml line 608.

** WML:Break: Error in Pass 3 (rc=1).

Looks like a dependency error?

It seems that the WML source file uses LWP::Simple. "/var/folders/pw/q34rdc055cg701h9z61nt67h0000gn/Twml.27817.tmp1.wml" looks like the name of an intermediary file between the passes of WML. Unfortunately, the line numbers are not helpful in WML errors; line 608 is the line where the statement ended up after pass 2.

WML itself only depends on LWP::Simple, Lynx, wget or fetch for including remote files.

Hrm, you're right - it's inside the wml source. Sorry for the wrong report. Do you know how I might be able to get LWP::Simple with macports? I'm not spotting a pre-made port, but maybe I'm overlooking something.

[cfaerber@…]

This should to the trick:

sudo cpan install LWP::Simple

It looks like LWP::Simple is in the already existing p5-libwww-perl port. Maybe this should be added as a runtime dependency?

[cfaerber@…]

LWP::Simple is not required by the wml port but by the wml source for the web page.

[mf2k (Frank Schima)]

So can this ticket be closed?

[hahn.seb@…]

Yes, I meant to imply that by comment #3.
