| Subject: | CGI_Lite module fails 'perl Makefile.PL' for Perl version 5.8 |
Distribution name and version: CGI_Lite-1.8
Perl version: v5.8.0 built for PA-RISC2.0
Operating System vendor and version: HP-UX B.10.26 A 9000/785
I use CGI_Lite a lot and my project wants to roll forward with verion 5.8 of perl. When I try to build CGI_Lite under this new version with a 'perl Makefile.PL' command I get the following error message:
WARNING: MAN3PODS takes a hash reference not a string/number.
Please inform the author.
Checking if your kit is complete...
Looks good
Can't use string(" ") as a HASH ref while "strict refs" in use at /opt/perl580/lib/ExtUtils/MM_Unix.pm line 541.
The error message doesn't appear at first glance to be all that serious. Are there any plans to keep this module alive for 5.8?
It would be great to have CGI_Lite work as it always has.
