Subject: don't know how to make test_dynamic on BSD
Date: Sat, 17 Sep 2016 21:22:37 -0600
To: bug-ExtUtils-MakeMaker [...] rt.cpan.org
From: Joel Maslak <jmaslak [...] antelope.net>
I think this is similar to https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=117800 Net::Patricia fails during make on various *BSDs due to a "don't know how to make test_dynamic" when using a newer ExtUtils::MakeMaker. I know that MakeMaker 7.10 works, and that 7.15 and 7.24 do not on OpenBSD or FreeBSD. Linux can make the modules fine with any of these versions. Here's a sample error report: http://www.cpantesters.org/cpan/report/537b842c-1191-11e6-9ed7-1b146f6fba58 There is an existing Makefile in a subdirectory that is executed by this stanza in the Makefile.PL of Net::Patricia: sub MY::postamble { ' $(MYEXTLIB): libpatricia/Makefile cd libpatricia && $(MAKE) $(PASSTHROUGH) '; } Obviously adding empty test_dynamic and test_static targets to the existing Makefile solves this issue, but since it broke on upgrade of MakeMaker, I thought I'd file a bug here since it's likely breaking other distro installs.

One clarification on this issue - the Makefile for Net::Patricia's libpatricia has a Makefile.PL in the libpatricia directory that includes a MY::top_targets that specifies test but not test_dynamic (or test_static). So that's probably the real issue here - this probably just needs to be updated there and I'll file a bug for that in the Net::Patricia distro.

This is a duplicate of #117800, I'm merging the tickets as such. Leon
