Setup: running gentoo inside vbox on Solaris (x86) Very new install Running `emerge -v dev-vcs/git' when it comes to installing several dev-perl pkgs begining with dev-perl/Digest-HMAC-1.30.0-r1::gentooi, it fails with a brief explanation:
>>> Configuring source in /var/tmp/portage/dev-perl/Digest-HMAC-1.30.0-r1/work/Digest-HMAC-1.03 ... * perl-module.eclass: Suspicious environment values found. * PERL5LIB="/usr/local/cpan-perl:/usr/local/cpan-perl/lib:/usr/local/cpan-perl/lib/perl5" * Your environment settings may lead to undefined behavior and/or build failures. * ERROR: dev-perl/Digest-HMAC-1.30.0-r1::gentoo failed (configure phase): * Please fix your environment ( ~/.bashrc, package.env, ... ), see above for details. * I've been building cpan packages and have them installed at the locations mentioned above. Then, to get perl to include them in `@INC', I've utilized the PERL5LIB variable in one of my login scripts, just as it appears in the error. Its not clear to me why setting these directories with PERL5LIB is `Suspicious', or how to proceed from here.
