ILYAZ - Line 1148 of Math::Pari contains: $f = eval { loadPari($meth) }; This code is incompatible with applications which use a DIE handler. The correct code is: $f = eval { local $SIG{__DIE__}; loadPari($meth) }; Thanks so much or all your efforts! Regards, Ken LeGro Architect, VerizonBusiness

No, it is absolutely compatible. Show quoted text

This code is not correct. It would disable the die handler. If somebody uses a die handler, they do it ON PURPOSE. Hope this helps, Ilya
