Mac Forum / Programming / Perl / July 2005problems with WWW::Curl, perl 5.8.7, Mac Mini, 10.4.2
I installed 5.8.7 on a Mac Mini running 10.4.2 under /usr/local, executables in /usr/local/bin, used .bash_profile to add /usr/local/ bin to the front of my path (bleaugh). (Hesitated about installing gpg, but trying to build it gave me a huge bunch of integer precision errors with the sign bit so I decided to just move ahead. Does cpan use openssl if it doesn't find gpg? Or does it just not bother to check the checksums/signatures?) sudid cpan, with the .cpan file under /usr/local/share/perl. (Is that reasonable?) Tried to install WWW:Curl from the cpan prompt. At the make test stage, I get about twenty occurences of Bareword "CURLOPT_MUTE" not allowed while "strict subs" in different files, and cpan kindly refuses to complete the install. 105 out of 108 failed. I don't see any other errors. I'm debating doing a parallel install of the latest curl into /usr/ local/bin. Anyone have a better suggestion? -- Joel Rees <rees@ddcom.co.jp> digitcom, inc. =A0=E5=8F=9A=A4=87=B8=B3=A0 Kobe, Japan +81-78-672-8800 ** <http://www.ddcom.co.jp> ** > I installed 5.8.7 on a Mac Mini running 10.4.2 under /usr/local, > executables in /usr/local/bin, used .bash_profile to add [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] > > Bareword "CURLOPT_MUTE" not allowed while "strict subs" It looks like WWW::Curl isn't happy under 5.8.7. That's a compile-time error, so it's never even getting off the ground. Definitely not related to CPAN, or Mac Mini, or 10.4.2. Best bet is to report this to the author of WWW::Curl. -Ken > I installed 5.8.7 on a Mac Mini running 10.4.2 under /usr/local, > executables in /usr/local/bin, used .bash_profile to add /usr/local/ [quoted text clipped - 21 lines] > > Anyone have a better suggestion? Just for the record, I did try a parallel install of curl, with the same results. Tried contacting the author, as Ken suggested, no response yet. > -- > Joel Rees <rees@ddcom.co.jp> > digitcom, inc. =A0=E5=8F=9A=A4=87=B8=B3=A0 > Kobe, Japan +81-78-672-8800 > ** <http://www.ddcom.co.jp> ** |
