#17380: perl5 activation error when installing gimp ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Reporter: pfo.mac@… | Owner: mcalhoun@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Port Bugs Component: ports | Version: 1.6.0 Keywords: gimp, perl5, perl5.8 | Port: perl5 ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Comment(by mcalhoun@…): I believe that {{{ sudo port uninstall perl5 sudo port install gimp }}} should solve your problem. If not, then I think that {{{ sudo port -f uninstall perl5 sudo port install gimp }}} is ok. The error seems to stem (at least partially) from the p5-* ports.[[BR]] The p5-* dependencies were changed in r42484 and r42584, but there is no way to get them to everybody until MacPorts 1.7.0 is released.[[BR]] #14553 has more to say on why that is. Please let me know if this fixes the problem. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/17380#comment:3> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
