Mac Forum / Programming / Perl / July 2005building 5.8.7 on 10.4
Just accepted all the defaults. sudo make gave one error: [...] cc -L/usr/local/lib -force_flat_namespace -o miniperl \ miniperlmain.o opmini.o libperl.a -ldl -lm -lc ./miniperl -w -Ilib -MExporter -e '<?>' || make minitest make: [extra.pods] Error 1 (ignored) [...] and make test gave this: [...] lib/Locale/Maketext/t/90_utf8.............ok lib/locale................................FAILED at test 99 [...] Failed 1 test script out of 883, 99.89% okay. ### Since not all tests were successful, you may want to run some of ### them individually and examine any diagnostic messages they produce. ### See the INSTALL document's section on "make test". ### You have a good chance to get more information by running ### ./perl harness ### in the 't' directory since most (>=80%) of the tests succeeded. ### You may have to set your dynamic library search path, ### DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH, to point to the build directory: ### setenv DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH `pwd`; cd t; ./perl harness ### DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=`pwd`; export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH; cd t; ./ perl harness ### export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=`pwd`; cd t; ./perl harness ### for csh-style shells, like tcsh; or for traditional/modern ### Bourne-style shells, like bash, ksh, and zsh, respectively. u=4.19 s=3.41 cu=268.95 cs=62.32 scripts=883 tests=100132 make[2]: *** [_test_tty] Error 1 make[1]: *** [_test] Error 2 make: *** [test] Error 2 I suppose I should ask after I run harness, but I thought I'd ask if I was supposed to have set the locale to locale_C or whatever that was. (Guess I could try that and have an answer in another half hour.) Man this Mac Mini is _fast_ for a cheap computer.

Guess I'm not sorry enough about being in a snit to shut up.) > lib/locale................................FAILED at test 99 This is perfectly normal. Unfortunately. The problem is that Mac OS X 10.4 ships with more locale definitions than previous versions, and eu_ES, one of the new locales, has a really weird (read, buggy) value for the decimal separator -- "\' ". This confuses perl into believing that a number using this string in place of a decimal point is two numbers, and a test which runs through various features of every installed locale fails. It's in the perl bug database as #35895, and I reported it to Apple as their bug ID# 4139653. But I have not had any feedback from Apple so far.

But I have not had any feedback from Apple so far. Okay, I tried the make test VERBOSE, as Ken suggested, and it reports the file you mention. I suppose I could simply fix that myself, if I knew the decimal separator should be the comma. But I'm not using Spanish, so I'll forego learning where Apple hid the locales today. (Hmm. I see / System/Library/LocalePlugins, but that only has something apparently for Thai text breaks.) Install completes without complaint. Thanks. joel > Just accepted all the defaults. > [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] > > make test You shouldn't run "sudo make" and then "make test" without sudo. The first step may create items that the second step can't deal with. In general the only step that you should use sudo for is "sudo make install". All previous steps should be done as your regular non-privileged user. -Ken >> Just accepted all the defaults. >> [quoted text clipped - 19 lines] > install".

Heh. I was in a hurry last night, didn't watch what I was copying from the saved text. I did indeed try to make test without the sudo first, but I figured that out immediately. > The > first step may create items that the second step can't deal with. > > In general the only step that you should use sudo for is "sudo make > install".

Well, I have the thing in the admin user's local directory, where I would expect there should be even less problem, and make still wouldn't run without sudo. I wonder why. > -Ken Anyway, I should be able to just install it, then? Thanks, Joel > Anyway, I should be able to just install it, then? Yeah, it sounds like it - I wasn't familiar with that locale issue, but if Dominic says it's okay then it probably is. If you want more details about the failure, you might be able to run "make test VERBOSE=1 TEST_FILES=lib/locale.t" and look at the output. -Ken Man this Mac Mini is _fast_ for a cheap computer.

Hi Joel, I am thinking that if Jobs picked AMD instead, he would a) have a better chip set, b) have a company that would be more responsive to his needs c) sided with a David rather than capitulating to the house of Goliath, d) preserved the Mac culture as different than the Windoze culture. I am glad AMD is suing Intel. I wish them the very best. Joe. |
