Re: [circos] Installation of Config::General on CentOS 6

[Martin Krzywinski]

If you absolutely must use 2.44, you can hack Circos to accept this.

In lib/Circos.pm, change

use Config::General        2.50;

to

use Config::General        2.44;

Or better yet, just remove the version number

use Config::General;

I've looked through Config::General changelog

http://cpansearch.perl.org/src/TLINDEN/Config-General-2.51/Changelog

and the difference between 2.44 and 2.50 seems to be bug fixes. 

I suggest you hack Circos.pm and try running it. If things barf, let me know and I'll see whether there's something I can do to go around the issue.

Howdy all,

I'm trying to install Circos on a cluster running CentOS 6.2 for a user. I have both the EPEL and RPMForge repos in place and have pulled all relevant requirements in. ./bin/test.modules finds all relevant Perl modules and gives the install a pass. However, the version of perl-Config-General that comes out of the base CentOS repo is 2.44, thus ./bin/circos won't run -- it requires 2.50 or greater.

Has anyone else run into this issue? What was the solution? I'd much rather stick with RPM'd version of the packages rather than going the CPAN route.

Thanks in advance.
