I upgraded to El Capitan on two laptops. For some reason on one I am having trouble installing any node versions with nvm (installed through homebrew). If I nvm install v0.12.7 this is what I get:

I don't know what happened, but I've looked into the error message and various mentions of how to fix the Perl issue but have came up with nothing.
I had the same problem - for some reason, on my Mac I had at least 2 versions of Perl, if not 3 - 5.16, 5.18 and I think also 5.18.2.
This broke many of the Perl libraries and command line tools, some of them used by homebrew, such as shasum.
I believe this could have happened during an XCode upgrade, because this could have changed the Perl installation.
I fixed it by re-installing a new version of Perl manually. I chose the latest one and followed these instructions:
I had the same problem, no idea how it happened. I suspect it somehow happened during an XCode Update. I fixed this by re-installing Perl on my Mac manually. I used the latest version as described here:
curl -O http://www.cpan.org/src/perl-5.26.1.tar.gz
tar -xzf perl-5.26.1.tar.gz
cd perl-5.26.1
./Configure -des -Dprefix=/usr/local/

I'm trying to upgrade my version of Perl from 5.14 up to 5.20.
When I run the perl 5.20 upgrade sudo pkg update system/runtime/perl#5.20 I get this error:
pkg update: No matching version of system/runtime/perl can be installed:
Reject: pkg://ms.system.com/system/runtime/perl#5.20.0,5.11-0.151006:20140604T182727Z
Reason: This version is excluded by installed incorporation pkg://perl.system.com/omniti/incorporation/perl-514-incorporation#5.14,5.11-0.151002:20120725T211507Z
Thus I'm trying to uninstall the current 5.14 version first with sudo pkg uninstall system/incorporation/perl-514-incorporation and got:
Creating Planpkg uninstall: Cannot remove 'pkg://perl.omniti.com/omniti/incorporation/perl-514-incorporation#5.14,5.11-0.151002:20120725T211507Z' due to the following packages that depend on it:

Any idae on how to get pass this?
I strongly recommend that you don't attempt to upgrade your system perl. A lot of miscellaneous stuff in your OS depends on it and upgrading it to a new major version will entail breaking a lot of stuff. Consider also that this upgrade will require rebuilding every CPAN module with XS dependencies as well.
The better solution is to use perlbrew to install perl-5.20.0 locally in your home directory. You can then use that to work with newer perls without touching your OS perl.
My perl version is 5.16.2 on my Windows 7 64bit, I failed to install PAR:Packer. I tried active perl and strawberry perl , both got the same error. Can you please give me some suggestion. Below is my experience:
I tried ppm install PAR:Packer, version 1.013, But when I use pp, I got the error:
Perl lib version (5.16.2) doesn't match executable version (v5.16.0).
I also tried cpan install PAR:Packer, version 1.014. But I got the error during installation. The pop up window says: par.exe has stopped working. Then command prompt got the error:
C:\Perl64\bin\perl.exe -Mblib run_with_inc.pl par.exe -q -B -Oparldyn.exe
system(par.exe -I C:\Users\PAR-Packer-1.014\blib\arch -I C:\Users\PAR-Packer-1.014\blib\lib - IC:/Perl64/site/lib -IC:/Perl64/lib -I. -q -B -Oparldyn.exe) failed:
dmake.exe: Error code 255, while making 'parldyn.exe'
dmake.exe: Error code 255, while making 'subdirs'
I have googled extensively, but as of yet haven't been able to find a solution, any help is greatly appreciated, thanks a lot!
I simply changed the line 60 in .../perl64/Config.pm from
`$^V eq 5.16.3`
to
`$^V eq 5.16.3 or $^V eq 5.16.0`
and voila! My par-packer module 1.013 installed through ppm (ActiveState Perl 5.16.3) works ...
I'll start off with my own environment:
Windows 7 x64 en_US
Strawberry Perl v5.16.2 32bit
I just confirmed that I do have PAR::Packer working on my environment. I'm running PAR::Packer version 1.014.
There is a bug logged about PAR::Packer 1.013 failing to build on certain environments. The bug is logged on CPAN here: https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=77408
I recommend trying one of the following paths forward (based on your build version requirements):
Install PAR::Packer 1.0.14.
Install the patched version of PAR::Packer 1.013 that is available at http://strawberryperl.com/package/kmx/perl-modules-patched/PAR-Packer-1.013_patched.tar.gz
To build you will need any dependencies as well. Hopefully those work just fine through CPAN.
Download either the patched version listed above or the latest version from the CPAN site, then execute:
perl Makefile.pl
dmake
dmake test
dmake install
Keep in mind PAR::Packer requires a C/C++ compiler to build.
I ran into this exact same error scenario with Perl 5.16.3 on my Windows 7 64 bit machine. I started my Perl tinkering with ActiveState and later installed other related programs like Komodo Edit and finally installed StrawberryPerl. After reading quite a few of these online posts I tried the manual dmake methods and whatever other suggestions I could find. I then tried uninstalling ActiveState. That didn't help either. Finally, I went on an uninstall binge and found that after uninstalling all of the ActiveState and Komodo applications (along with a bunch of other stuff I wasn't using anymore) I was able to successfully install and use pp in two simple steps from the cpan prompt:
install CPAN
install pp
I was going to uninstall and re-install StrawberryPerl next but didn't have to. The install CPAN may not be necessary but it was suggested in the log output in one of my previously failed attempts so I figured I'd try that first. Hope this saves someone all the hassle I went to as a begginer.
I'm trying to install Bugzilla but encounter a Perl problem.
When installing required Perl modules, I get the following error message:
ERROR: Using install-module.pl requires that you install a compiler, such as gcc.
gcc 4.2.3 is installed and in the path. I'm using perl v 5.8.6 OS: Linux DiskStation 2.6.32.12
Another thread on Stackoverflow refers to PerlGcc but it seems to work on Solaris only.
How can I make Perl find gcc?
I'm guessing you're talking about this thread. Assuming that the guy talking about the version of gcc being relevant was onto something, could you check that you don't have an older version of gcc lying around somewhere higher in the path with
$ which gcc
Could someone guide me how to install the Perl DBD::Oracle module?
Here is what I have done so far:
Platform: RHEL 5.8 64 bit
Installed Perl DBI package
Installed Oracle Instant client for Linux 64 bit (basi + sdk + sqlplus component for the instant client
Have set the correct $ORACLE_HOME and $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
Then when I do perl Makefile.pl it fails with the following error:
I'm having trouble finding your Oracle version number... trying harder
WARNING: I could not determine Oracle client version so I'll just
default to version 8.0.0.0. Some features of DBD::Oracle may not work.
Oracle version based logic in Makefile.PL may produce erroneous results.
You can use "perl Makefile.PL -V X.Y.Z" to specify a your client version.
Oracle version 8.0.0.0 (8.0)
DBD::Oracle no longer supports Oracle client versions before 9.2
Try a version before 1.25 for 9 and 1.18 for 8! at Makefile.PL line 271.
The instant client version: 11.1.0
The DBD::Oracle version is 1.44
If you have installed successfully with the Oracle instant client, then could you please let me know what am I missing?
Is it possible to install DBD::Oracle without using the Oracle instant client?
Install if missing ExtUtils-MakeMaker module (sudo yum install perl-ExtUtils-MakeMaker)
Install Perl DBI module ($ yum install perl-DBI)
Manually install below three RPMs for Oracle instant client (from Instant Client Downloads for Linux x86-64. The example is for v11.2.0.3.0-1: adapt the commands below to the actual version.)
oracle-instantclient11.2-basic-11.2.0.3.0-1
oracle-instantclient11.2-devel-11.2.0.3.0-1
oracle-instantclient11.2-sqlplus-11.2.0.3.0-1
I am using 64 bit Linux box, so select your RPM filenames accordingly. Something like sudo yum -y install oracle-instantclient*rpm should do)
set below variables:
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/oracle/11.2/client64/lib
export ORACLE_HOME=/usr/lib/oracle/11.2/client64
MacOS users will need:
DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/oracle/11.2/client64/
Also add ORACLE_HOME to your PATH variable.
download DBD::Oracle from CPAN
untar the module and run below commands in given sequence:
perl Makefile.PL
make
sudo make install
In case you get complaints about missing gcc you can (temporarily) install it and then remove it.
DONE !!!
Issues I had faced were due to the wrong LD_LIBRARY_PATH. I had set it to /usr/lib/oracle/11.2/client64 whereas the correct value is /usr/lib/oracle/11.2/client64/lib.
Certainly, this was a great learning for a newbie like me.
you can also read my article How to install DBD::Oracle which contains all the steps required to install DBD::Oracle CPAN module, which is not a straightforward installation. The purpose is to reduce headache and turn it into a repeatable process.
Here's what I did on CentOS 7.2 using yum packages and CPAN. This assumes you're using Oracle version 12.1 but I would imagine most versions will work this way.
Install Oracle Instant Client
yum install oracle-instantclient12.1-basic-12.1.0.2.0-1 oracle-instantclient12.1-devel-12.1.0.2.0-1 oracle-instantclient12.1-sqlplus-12.1.0.2.0-1
Copy demo make files
The install expects the *.mk file to be in /usr/share/oracle/12.1/client64 but the yum package install puts them in /usr/share/oracle/12.1/client64/demo.
sudo cp /usr/share/oracle/12.1/client64/demo/* /usr/share/oracle/12.1/client64
Modify .bashrc
Add the following lines to your ~/.bashrc
export ORACLE_HOME=/usr/lib/oracle/12.1/client64
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/oracle/12.1/client64/lib
export PATH=$ORACLE_HOME:$PATH
Now source the file
source ~/.bashrc
Update CPAN and DBI
Update CPAN and DBI to the latest
cpan> install CPAN
cpan> reload cpan
cpan> install DBI
Install DBD::Oracle
cpan> install DBD::Oracle
A little addition to slayedbylucifer answer. I had the same problem like mentioned in the question. I've done all the steps described by slayedbylucifer. But still I got the problem like mentioned here:
/usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-suse-linux/4.3/../../../../x86_64-suse-linux/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /opt/oracle/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/client_1/lib//libclntsh.so when searching for -lclntsh
/usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-suse-linux/4.3/../../../../x86_64-suse-linux/bin/ld: cannot find -lclntsh
So I created the following symbolic link:
ln -s /opt/oracle/app/oracle/product/<YOUR_ORACLE_VERSION>/client_1/lib/libclntsh.so $ORACLE_HOME/libclntsh.so*
After that step the error from above (cannot find -lclntsh) was fixed. The execution of the make command was without any errors.
The only problem I still have is that I don't understand why this symbolic link is necessary.
I'm trying to install Maatkit following the maatkit instructions. I can't get past having to install DBD::mysql. "Warning: prerequisite DBD::mysql 1 not found."
When I try to install DBD::mysql from cpan, I get very helpful "make had returned bad status, install seems impossible".
Perl is "v5.8.8 built for darwin-thread-multi-2level", the one that came with OS X. I also tried building from source with same result.
We need more of the error message. Most likely, you are missing the MySQL client development files. I don't know how to install these on OSX. Also see this older post on OSX 10.5.2 , in which some other failures with the mysql client libraries are found.
Possibly post this question with more parts of your error message at perlmonks.org, if stackoverflow doesn't allow for convenient pasting of your make session or rather the last 20 or 10 lines of it.
Some more Googling with site:perlmonks.org also finds this post which has some more details on things to watch out for when installing DBD::MySQL. Depending on how comfortable you feel with the installation, you might want to manually run the tests, supplying a test database and test user or even skip testing the module.
After a bit more googling, this worked for me:
sudo ln -s /usr/local/mysql/lib /usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql
sudo ln -s /usr/local/mysql/include /usr/local/mysql/include/mysql
sudo perl -MCPAN -e 'install Bundle::DBD::mysql'
press enter a bunch of times, then in your maatkit folder:
perl Makefile.PL
sudo make install
and you'll find the mk-* programs in /usr/local/bin/
You will want to install MySQL first. I usually use the binary packages they provide for OS X. The packages do include the headers and MySQL client libraries which DBD::MySQL requires. Once the MySQL package is installed, DBD::MySQL should install without issue.
Here is my output:
$ perl Makefile.PL
Checking if your kit is complete...
Looks good
Warning: prerequisite DBD::mysql 1 not found.
Writing Makefile for maatkit
$ mysql --version
mysql Ver 14.12 Distrib 5.0.51b, for apple-darwin9.0.0b5 (i686) using readline 5.0
I notice that there are in effect DBD::MySQL packages in the fink repositories. For example:
ayaz#ayazs-macbook$ fink list | grep -i 'dbd-mysql'
dbd-mysql-pm586 3.0008-10 Perl5 Database Interface to MySQL
dbd-mysql-pm588 3.0008-10 Perl5 Database Interface to MySQL
Perhaps installing through fink one of those packages may help alleviate your troubles.
Also, and I cannot be certain of this, you may want to install for MySQL-5.x (if you have that version installed) the mysql15-dev and mysql15-shlibs packages. I installed those through fink thus:
$ sudo fink --use-binary-dist install mysql15-dev
