I'm having some dependency issues with some packages. I have to use CPANPLUS (cpan & cpanm are not options) is there any way I can skip dependencies when installing a package? --force
seems to install all dependencies (even if they're already installed and is leading to a circular dep in this case) and --skiptest
just skips tests.
If the dependencies are already installed, what is the issue you're encountering that creates a circular dependencies? – HerbN – 2010-08-23T16:59:43.710
@HerbN I'll quote myself "--force installs all dependencies even if they're already installed" when 2 packages depend on each other --force will continue to install the deps back and forth.... it was very annoying, I manually resolved the problem which really doesn't resolve this question. – xenoterracide – 2010-09-04T03:02:11.710
