Re: [CentOS] Missing Dependency

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Viewing the lastest logwatch, discovered the error below.

Error: Missing Dependency: perl(Module::Install::Base) is needed by package
perl-Test-Base

This would appear to be a yum message. Could you provide details as to
what yum repositories you have enabled? Is yum set to update your
system automatically? We need some details here.

I have CentOS-Base.repo dag.repo jpackage.repo kbsingh-CentOS-Extras.repo. And yes, auto update.

I tried to install Module::Install::Base using cpan and cpan tell me it has
already installed.

This doesn't help you, as rpm has absolutely no idea that you've
installed software via cpan. Because cpan (and other source
installation methods) don't update the rpm database, you'll run into
more issues like this the more you install from source. It's much
better to stick with the package management system for your particular
distro, be it .deb, rpm or something else.

All the perl packages are done via cpan. Am i into deep trouble?

Thanks
