@jonchang I can confirm that adding an install of ExtUtils::MakeMaker as a resource to [email protected] works:

What happens if you run brew install perl beforehand?

jonchang on 12 Oct 2020

It's already installed 😕

❯ brew install perl
Warning: perl 5.32.0 is already installed and up-to-date

I have got the same error while install brew the first time under my home directory.

Tried brew install perl, got the same error.

I got the same error on a Linux host that's missing basic modules like ExtUtils/MakeMaker.pm, and on which I'd like to pretend I'm not root.

I worked around it by installing those modules locally and then editing the formula temporarily:

--- a/Formula/[email protected]
+++ b/Formula/[email protected]
@@ -60,6 +60,8 @@ class OpensslAT11 < Formula
   def install
     unless OS.mac?
       ENV.prepend_create_path "PERL5LIB", libexec/"lib/perl5"
+      ENV.prepend_create_path "PERL5LIB", "/home/me/.perl5lib/share/perl5"
+      ENV.prepend_create_path "PERL5LIB", "/home/me/.perl5lib/lib64/perl5"
       resource("Test::Harness").stage do

That sufficed to bootstrap an install of [email protected], which in turn allowed brew install perl, etc.

What should I have done?

knutsenm on 14 Oct 2020

I won't have time to look at this until later this week, so if you all can work on testing a few solutions it would speed everything up quite a bit.

One idea is to add MakeMaker to the Perl resources installed in the formula. There's already a few there, so this should just be a matter of copy and paste and editing a few lines.

If you have reproduction instructions through a Docker image that would be ideal.

Bump!

@offbyone can you open a pull request that adds this to the formula? Thanks!
