[rt-users] Mason 1.1x ??

[Mark Moorcroft]

Help,

OK, after countless days rebuilding my OSX box I have Perl 5.8, 
mod_perl, PHP and FastCGI playing together. Reinstalling RT I ran 
make fixdeps. The fixdeps process seemed to go smoother than I can 
ever remember. There were a few glitches, but now I find that RT 
won't even display the login page, apparently because of Mason 1.1x. 
There is nothing in the README about it from what I can remember, but 
searching the RT-dev list online it looks like it's a problem. Now 
since this was simply the default CPAN install running fixdeps I'm 
not sure how I would have avoided this. Can anyone tell me the best 
way to "downgrade" Mason? I am trying to install rt-2-1-30 by the way 
on OSX.1.5 wkstn. From the RT Changelog it looks like work has begun 
on Mason 1.1 some time in April. The failure mode is as follows:
