David,
Thanks a lot for your feedback on this. Good to get confirmation!

You can reinstall by doing a "force install". I.e:
sudo perl -MCPAN -e 'force install MIME::Parser'
I did end up force installing both SOAP::Lite and Test::Class, though 
I wasn't able to do it using sudo perl -MCPAN ... for some reason. It 
still failed the tests and wouldn't install. However, I succeeded when 
I logged into the cpan shell using sudo cpan. Then using force install 
inside the shell worked just fine. Seems to be working, but a little 
odd, don't you think?

Sherm (and fellow perlers),
Just wanted to give y'all a heads up on what happened.

Thanks for the advice. I've actually already done that. It took quite 
a while, but I think in the end it worked out okay.

I'll give it a shot. Thanks!
I'd be tempted to do a "force install" on SOAP::Lite. MIME::Parser 
passed all of its own self-tests (on my machine), so a likely cause of 
the problem is that SOAP::Lite uses an API in MIME::Parser that has 
either been vanished or changed. Another possibility is simply that 
the self-tests are faulty - it happens.
I'm still in my training-wheels phase, so I'm a bit hesitant to force 
install until getting a second opinion--and now I've got it :) Thanks 
for the explanation as well.

BTW, I get the same results on my Linux machine - so it's not 
something you've done, or something wrong with your Mac.
Do you mean the MIME::Parser error or the other test failures as well? 
(Still am not sure what to do about those, though hopefully a force 
install takes care of it.)

It's definitely an issue with SOAP::Lite and the current version of 
MIME::Parser. Have you reported the problem to the SOAP::Lite 
maintainer(s)?
I haven't reported it, but I did notice that there was mention on the 
SOAP::Lite mailing list that one should really install a bleeding edge 
version of MIME::Tools that reportedly fixes this problem.

soaplite ML Thread:

updated MIME::Tools

Thanks a lot for your response. You're explanation and suggestions are 
really helpful.

Don't forget about the Bundle::Bricolage bundle on CPAN. Bricolage 
needs a *huge* number of modules, and the bundle is easier than 
installing them all one-by-one.

 One of the required modules is SOAP::Lite. However, I'm having make 
test failures installing it via CPAN (v1.76). It seems that I'm having 
a problem with MIME::Parser. (Something wrong with MIME message: 
MIME::Parser: can't flush:  at /Library/Perl/5.8.1/MIME/Parser.pm line 
789). I'm unfamiliar with how to attempt to reinstall MIME::Parser in 
case there's a problem with my MIME::Parser install. I believe it was 
installed as a requirement for another module I installed via CPAN.

sudo perl -MCPAN -e 'force install MIME::Parser'
I don't think that will fix the problem though - I get the same 
failures for SOAP::Lite's self-tests, so I doubt the problem is a 
faulty MIME::Parser installation on your machine.

the problem is that SOAP::Lite uses an API in MIME::Parser that has

self-tests are faulty - it happens.

Also, even if it *is* a bug, it may not bite you. Bricolage might not 
use SOAP::Lite in a way that triggers the bug.

you've done, or something wrong with your Mac. It's definitely an issue

Installing SOAP::Lite

[Michael Glaesemann]

Hello all!
I'm working on installing Bricolage 1.8.2 on Mac OS X 10.3.5 (stock  
perl v5.8.1-RC3). One of the required modules is SOAP::Lite. However,  
I'm having make test failures installing it via CPAN (v1.76). It seems  
that I'm having a problem with MIME::Parser. (Something wrong with MIME  
message: MIME::Parser: can't flush:  at  
/Library/Perl/5.8.1/MIME/Parser.pm line 789). I'm unfamiliar with how  
to attempt to reinstall MIME::Parser in case there's a problem with my  
MIME::Parser install. I believe it was installed as a requirement for  
another module I installed via CPAN.

Relevant sections posted below. Any additional information cheerfully  
submitted upon request.

Thanks for any help!
