Subject: A force switch with MCPAN install
Hello,
I am trying to install the DBD::mysql package, but I am having some issues with the make test and make install, causing the whole process to fail.
Can anyone give some advice on forcing the install...
but, if possible, I would still like to have control of dependancies, just have it push through make testing
If this is too much to ask, just finding out the switch for force would do, I can't seem to find any doco on this.
perl -MCPAN -e 'install DBD::mysql'

Mike,
What is the failure errors? If you chose to force it, the syntax is as follows:
perl -MCPAN -e 'force install DBD::mysql'
Here is a link that will provide soem additional details:

Hope this helps.
Cheers,
John
