Hi,
I'm running the SYMPA install for the first time on CentOS5 dual core server. I've much experience with Perl (programmer 10 years).
The install script keeps coming back with errors such as "Installation of Regexp::Common FAILED. Do you want to force the installation of this module?" although I can see form the output that the make test and make install went fine...

Also sometimes it gets caught in a dependency loop, asking to prepend the same modules over and over without trying to install them in between. I tried updating to the latest CPAN, but if anything it got worse. Strangely, if I run "cpan MODULENAME" for the modules that wouldn't go on there isn't a problem...

Maybe it would be good to distribute all of the Pure Perl modules along with Sympa, this would at least make the build process quicker.


Lyle
