Re: Required Perl modules?

[Han Lee via Tech-talk <tech-talk@aps.anl.gov>]

I don't use the Alma, however, for Rocky 9, I need the following

perl-FindBin

Here is my personal repo to keep them up-to-date, which is sometimes more than EPICS, so you can check "pkg-os" folders to see what I needed to do.

All,

I am building EPICS support on a new (for me) version of linux, Alma 9.  Previous work on Scientific Linux 7.

I got to calc-R3-7-5 and I run into a PERL related error. 

perl -CSD -MExtUtils::Command -e cat ../calcSupport_LOCAL.dbd ../calcSupport_withSSCAN.dbd ../calcSupport_withSNCSEQ.dbd > calcSupport.dbd

Can't locate ExtUtils/Command.pm in @INC (you may need to install the ExtUtils::Command module) (@INC contains: /usr/local/lib64/perl5/5.32 /usr/local/share/perl5/5.32 /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib64/perl5 /usr/share/perl5).

BEGIN failed--compilation aborted.

A quick look at the Alma 9 PERL install shows ExtUtils missing.  

I see that the Alma 9 PERL install appears to be missing other modules I see in the SL7 PERL install.

I am wondering if there is a list PERL modules needed for EPICS build?  (as opposed to discovery by trial)

Thanks,
