Hi, this is my environment: #------ CUT HERE ------------ root@flaviox ~# uname -a Linux flaviox 2.4.20-flavio-qos #1 Mon Nov 10 13:03:54 CET 2003 i686 unknown root@flaviox ~# perl -v This is perl, v5.8.6 built for i386-linux #------ CUT HERE ------------ I tried to install PAR (all prerequisites were already in place) but I got an error about "./myldr/mktmpdir.h" not being able to find "sha1.c", which I saw was included at the end of the header file. I found something in Makefile.PL, but that chunk of Makefile code did not get included in the final Makefile. So I had to do: cd myldr perl sha1.c.PL sha1.c cd .. make make test and all went ok. I don't know the rationale below the inclusion of "sha1.c" at the end of the header file, so I cannot propose a definitive solution - only the above workaround. Best regards, Flavio.

Hi, sorry for the late reply. Does this still apply to the most recent PAR (0.951)? Steffen

It seems to install without complaining directly from the cpan shell now, but I've changed system in the meantime (running 5.8.8 at the moment). Hope this helps, Flavio.

Hi Flavio, since we won't be able to debug the problem if you changed systems and everything is running normally now, I'll close the ticket. Sorry it took so long to get back to it. Steffen

Hi Steffen, my old system is just one-hard-disk-installation distant. If you want to definitively eliminate any doubt, I can restore the old hd in my computer and see what happens. Ciao, Flavio.

Since I haven't seen any similar reports in a while, I suppose the issue has been fixed. A hard disk installation is an annoying procedure after all. If you do it for some other reason some day, I'd appreciate a test run. :) Steffen

Well then, please re-close the ticket if it has been reopened by my answer, and when I'll restore the hd (which happens from time to time) I'll try to remember to run the test and I'll open a new ticket if things are wrong. Flavio
