https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=242184 Summary: NcFTP client should be included Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: unspecified Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: jrock@fmbv.nu QAContact: qa@suse.de If someone wants to run "perl .MCPAN -e shell", the configuration part requires ncftpget to be installed. Now it requires these steps to get CPAN running: 1. searching for it on Google 2. download 3. unpack 3. "./configure" 4. "make" 5. "make install" 6. "whereis ncftpget" 7. type in "/usr/local/bin/ncftpget" in CPAN configuration prompt. Therefore I suggest that the NcFTP client (http://www.ncftp.com/ncftp/) should be included in the base distribution. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
