Perl Programmers Reference Guide PERLHAIKU(1) NAME perlhaiku - Perl version 5.10+ on Haiku DESCRIPTION This file contains instructions how to build Perl for Haiku and lists known problems. BUILD AND INSTALL The build procedure is completely standard: ./Configure -de make make install Make perl executable and create a symlink for libperl: chmod a+x /boot/common/bin/perl cd /boot/common/lib; ln -s perl5/5.32.0/BePC-haiku/CORE/libperl.so . Replace 5.32.0 with your respective version of Perl. KNOWN PROBLEMS The following problems are encountered with Haiku revision 28311: o Perl cannot be compiled with threading support ATM. o The cpan/Socket/t/socketpair.t test fails. More precisely: the subtests using datagram sockets fail. Unix datagram sockets aren't implemented in Haiku yet. o A subtest of the cpan/Sys-Syslog/t/syslog.t test fails. This is due to Haiku not implementing /dev/log support yet. o The tests dist/Net-Ping/t/450_service.t and dist/Net-Ping/t/510_ping_udp.t fail. This is due to bugs in Haiku's network stack implementation. CONTACT For Haiku specific problems contact the HaikuPorts developers: <http://ports.haiku-files.org/> The initial Haiku port was done by Ingo Weinhold <ingo_weinhold@gmx.de>.
