Subject: Module Installation Problem: Prerequisite
Message-Id: <dqkfqo$63c$1@mailhub227.itcs.purdue.edu>
I don't have root privilege and I want to install a module under my home
directory.
I met a problem when I try to install a perl module in the usr direcotry
under my home directory (i.e., "~/usr"). What I did and the error
message is listed as follows.
--------------------------------------
>> perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=~/usr
Warning: prerequisite Heap 0 not found.
Writing Makefile for Graph
---------------------------------------
I tried to download module Heap from CPAN, which I successfully
installed in ~/usr. But the warning message is still there.
What step have I missed?
Thanks a lot,
Sean
And here is the Makefile.PL file
-----------------------------------------
#Makefile.PL
use ExtUtils::MakeMaker;
require 5.005;
use Getopt::Long;
my $renum;
GetOptions('renumber' => \$renum);
do 'util/renum.pl' if $renum;
WriteMakefile(
NAME => 'Graph',
VERSION_FROM => 'lib/Graph.pm',
PREREQ_PM =>
{
'Heap' => 0,
'List::Util' => 0,
'Math::Complex' => 0,
'Test::More' => 0,
},
);
# Some Debian distributions have a broken List::Util (see rt.cpan.org #9568)
eval 'require Scalar::Util; import Scalar::Util qw(weaken)';
if ($@) {
die <<__EOF__;
$@
You do not have Scalar::Util::weaken, cannot continue, aborting.
__EOF__
}

No, but it is hoped that people would spend 10 minutes trying to
find the answer on their own before asking hundreds/thousands
of people around the world about it.
Perl's regular expressions are documented in
perldoc perlrequick
perldoc perlretut
perldoc perlre
It is also hoped that you would not ask hundreds of people to bother
explaining parts that you _do_ already understand.
Which parts do you not understand?
dot (.) matches any character.
asterisk (*) matches zero or more of the previous thing.
\n matches a newline.
(?: ) does grouping, like parenthesis, but without triggering memory.

Um... not unless you're following damian's advice to use the /s modifier
at all times. Under normal circumstances it matches any character
*except a newline*.

The way it says to in the documentation for the function that
you are using, or the way that it says to in the Perl FAQ.
