Posted: Tue Nov 17, 2009 9:30 pm Post subject: perl-experimental overlay

After a recent upgrade, my content_filter amavisd-new quit working because of perl modules it couldn't find.
So I wanted to run perl-cleaner to rebuild all my perl modules (~504) but all my perl modules from the
perl-experimental overlay, needed to have their sources manually downloaded.

All the CPAN sources have a form similar to the following:

Quote:

http://search.cpan.org/CPAN/authors/id/A/AD/ADAMK/Object-Signature-1.05.tar.gz
http://search.cpan.org/CPAN/authors/id/C/CF/CFRANKS/HTML-Widget-1.11.tar.gz

Is there a source repository for perl-experimental that I can add to my /etc/make.conf
or is there some other way to automate fetching these sources which aren't part of portage?

Since this is so time consuming to wait for a fetch to fail, then search and download CPAN manually,
I gave up on perl-cleaner, and just looked inside the amavisd-new ebuild to rebuild the RDEPEND,
so I could get my deferred-delivery postfix mail.
