(received by private email) I'm trying to get this to build on Centos 5 and am getting the following: [root@poker Socket-Packet-0.02]# perl Build.PL OS unsupported at Build.PL line 6, <DATA> line 584. [root@poker Socket-Packet-0.02]# uname -a Linux poker 2.6.18-128.1.1.el5 #1 SMP Mon Jan 26 13:58:24 EST 2009 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux [root@poker Socket-Packet-0.02 Any thoughts? -mark -- Paul Evans

6 eval { require ExtUtils::CBuilder; 1 } or 7 die "OS unsupported"; Hmm.. Oops; I should probably give a better reason in there. I'll fix that in the next version. Anyhow, your machine is missing ExtUtils::CBuilder. Install that, and things should work. -- Paul Evans

Also, you should probably use the CPAN shell to install this. cpan -i Socket::Packet would automatically handle the build-time dependencies, because they're declared in the distribution's META.yml -- Paul Evans
