Hello monks,
I'm deploying a copy of perl-5.8.9 in my system, since I need it for working on a project and my system perl has already been upgraded to 5.10. So far the compilation and installation of perl-5.8.9 has gone fine and now I'm installing the project's required modules.
I'm getting an error with CGI::Test, during the make test stage, saying undefined symbol: PL_curpad. This is the partial output of what I'm doing:
$ PATH=$PATH:/opt/myperl/bin /opt/myperl/bin/cpan CGI::Test
[...]

I've searched google and the monastery to no avail, although I saw some things that could help to shed some light on this:
$ nm /opt/myperl/lib/5.8.9/i686-linux/auto/Fcntl/Fcntl.so | grep PL_cu
+rpad
U PL_curpad
$ nm /opt/myperl/bin/perl | grep PL_curpad
0813c000 B PL_curpad
$ /opt/myperl/bin/perl -MFcntl -e 'print "ok\n";'
ok
This last snippet shows that Fcntl seems to load properly, although it doesn't when testing CGI::Test. Maybe I'm inadvertently mixing something with the system perl, although I don't see where. What should I do? I'm out of ideas.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>

-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
