#33310: Missing symlink /opt/local/bin/perl ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Reporter: lionteeth@… | Owner: ricci@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.0.3 Keywords: perl help2man | Port: mp4v2 ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Changes (by ricci@…): * owner: macports-tickets@… => ricci@… Comment: Did you install the perl5 port? It provides /opt/local/bin/perl, and ports that need perl should depend on the perl5 port. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/33310#comment:1> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

#33310: Missing symlink /opt/local/bin/perl ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Reporter: lionteeth@… | Owner: ricci@… Type: defect | Status: assigned Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.0.3 Keywords: perl help2man | Port: mp4v2 ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Comment(by lionteeth@…): That's likely all that's required. I had installed autoconf, which pulls in perl5 in the form of perl5 @5.12.3, Revision 1 (lang). It does not create a symlink to /opt/local/bin/perl. help2man seems to depend on a slightly different, perl5.12, perl5.12 @5.12.3_3. This version insists on creating a symlink to /opt/local/bin/perl. Somehow installing mp4v2, which depends on help2man, didn't quite handle this. help2man seems to have seen that perl5 @5.12.3 rev 1 was installed, but expected it to have a /opt/local/bin/perl. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/33310#comment:3> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
