| Subject: | Use Storable::nfreeze for portability |
Hi,
MARC::Charset::Table uses Storable::freeze to store the code objects in
the database. This has the consequence that if the Perl binary interface
changes, for example because a new Perl installation uses -Duse64bitint
or -Duselongdouble, the database becomes unusable.
Double size is not compatible at ../../lib/Storable.pm (autosplit into
../../lib/auto/Storable/thaw.al) line 415, at
/usr/share/perl5/MARC/Charset/Table.pm line 97
I believe Storable::nfreeze could be used to easily get a more portable
database, eliminating this problem.
FWIW, this is http://bugs.debian.org/579517 and as I don't see much
chance for breakage I think we're going to do this for Debian. Please
let me know if you see any problems with this.
Many thanks for your work,
