| Subject: | Use "mod_perl2" Instead of "mod_perl" in PREREQ_PM of Makefile.PL |
Dear Leon Brocard,
Hi. This is imacat from Taiwan. I found that the Makefile.PL of
your OpenFrame-Segment-Apache2-1.00 uses the Apache2 module, which does
not exist in the current mod_perl 2.x distribution. The result is that
I can not even run Makefile.PL even if mod_perl 2.x is available. The
attached terminal log below shows it.
imacat@rinse /tmp/OpenFrame-Segment-Apache2-1.00 % perl -mApache2::Util
-e'print $Apache2::Util::VERSION;'; echo
2.000003
imacat@rinse /tmp/OpenFrame-Segment-Apache2-1.00 % perl Makefile.PL
Can't locate Apache2.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /home/imacat/lib/perl5
/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/x86_64-linux-thread-multi-ld /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/x86_64-linux-thread-multi-ld
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl /usr/share/perl5
.) at Makefile.PL line 3.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at Makefile.PL line 3.
imacat@rinse /tmp/OpenFrame-Segment-Apache2-1.00 %
Also, I found that the PREREQ_PM in the Makefile.PL of your
OpenFrame-Segment-Apache2-1.00 is not actually looking for mod_perl 2.x,
but mod_perl 1.x. It lists a virtual module "mod_perl", which is only
available in mod_perl 1.x. This virtual module has changed its name to
"mod_perl2" since mod_perl 2.x. Thus when you list "mod_perl" in
PREREQ_PM, it actually looks for mod_perl 1.x, but not mod_perl 2.x.
You should use "mod_perl2" instead of "mod_perl" in the PREREQ_PM of
your Makefile.PL.
I have made a simple patch in the hope that it helps. Please tell
me if you need any more information, or if I could be of any help.
Thank you.
