problem during make

I have been trying to install DBD::Pg on SUNOS (SunOS 5.9 Generic_118558-11 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-5_10) both manually and CPAN. I seem to be stuck during the make process with the following error message "quote.c", line 94: syntax error before or at: / "quote.c", line 98: syntax error before or at: / "quote.c", line 117: cannot recover from previous errors make: *** [quote.o] Error 10 I think when trying to install using CPAN, CPAN tried with version DBD-Pg-1.48 and I have manually tried to run make on version DBD-Pg-1.47 and DBD-Pg-1.48 with no luck. Currently the system has Perl v5.6.1 installed. Any help is much appreciated. Thanks in advance

What compiler are you using? It looks as though it does not like the double-forward-slash style of comments, two of which have snuck into quote.c. You can remove those yourself (lines 94 and 98) and it should work after that. I will remove them from the next version as well: thanks for the report. - -- Greg Sabino Mullane greg@turnstep.com PGP Key: 0x14964AC8 200604120857 http://biglumber.com/x/web?pk=2529DF6AB8F79407E94445B4BC9B906714964AC8 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iD8DBQFEPPlCvJuQZxSWSsgRAu2jAJ9czJshQTmIskx3ePJ+x3sESU9hKQCg/WU+ zWJOBFri6SWwWYf3nGANz/M= =m35G -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
