Subject: Build problems on vanilla perl for RHEL 3
When I try to build Class::Std on a box running RHEL 3, I get the following : [stbaldwin@audev02 Class-Std-0.0.4]$ make cp lib/Class/Std.pm blib/lib/Class/Std.pm Manifying blib/man3/Class::Std.3pm [stbaldwin@audev02 Class-Std-0.0.4]$ make test PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1 /usr/bin/perl "-MExtUtils::Command::MM" "-e" "test_harness(0, 'blib/lib', 'blib/arch')" t/*.t t/00.load.........ok 1/1# Testing Class::Std v0.0.4 t/00.load.........ok t/access..........ok t/automethod......ok t/coercions.......Use of uninitialized value in method lookup at (eval 13) line 3.

[stbaldwin@audev02 Class-Std-0.0.4]$ uname -a Linux audev02.multiservice.com 2.4.21-32.0.1.ELsmp #1 SMP Tue May 17 17:52:23 EDT 2005 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux I have taken the same build steps on a Cygwin (perl 5.8.6) platform and get no errors from 'make test'. Is this likely to be related to the version of Perl on RHEL? If the coercion is the only chunk of functionality we loose (and 'make test' seems to indicate that), I can live with this for the time being, but I would just like some confirmation that that is the case. Again, if it is a Perl version thing, is there any chance for this to be 'fixed' in a future release of Class::Std? Our policy here is to (if at all possible) stick with the standard s/w components delivered by RH, and only build our own RPM's for modules not available under RHEL3. Thanks for any help/suggestion/advice. Steve

[guest - Tue Aug 30 20:18:53 2005]: OK, I've been tinkering with this and have managed to get it working on the Perl delivered with RHEL3 (5.8.0). Here is a patch.

Applied. Thanks, Steve. Damian
