I am trying to use G-cpan to emerge Rose-DB-Object.

It seems the ebuild does not digest:
Code:
!!! 'perl-gcpan/Rose-DB-Object' has a category that is not                                       listed in /etc/portage/categories
>>> Creating Manifest for /usr/local/portage/perl-gcpan/Ro                                      se-DB-Object

!!! 'perl-gcpan/Rose-DB-Object' has a category that is not                                       listed in /etc/portage/categories


I have
Code:
ls /usr/local/portage/perl-gcpan/
Clone-PP                  Rose-DB-Object
Data-OptList              Rose-DateTime
DateTime-Format-Builder   Rose-Object
DateTime-Format-MySQL     SQL-ReservedWords
DateTime-Format-Pg        Sub-Exporter
DateTime-Format-Strptime  Sub-Install
Rose-DB                   Time-Clock


Code:
 g-cpan -i Rose::DB::Object
CPAN: Storable loaded ok
Going to read /var/tmp/g-cpan/.cpan/Metadata
  Database was generated on Fri, 06 Jul 2007 18:50:50 GMT
 * g-cpan: Ebuild already exists for Rose-DB-Object
Calculating dependencies /
emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy "Rose-DB-Object".



thanks for any ideas

We added the line
Code:
perl-gcpan

to
Code:
/etc/portage/catagories

Seems to be running

The relevant error message was
Code:
!!! 'perl-gcpan/Rose-DB-Object' has a category that is not listed in /etc/portage/categories
[/code]
