Subject: Archive::Tar fails to build against IO::Zlib 1.02
When trying to build Archive::Tar v1.10 against IO::Zlib 1.02, 'make test' produces the following error: t/01_use........ok t/02_methods....ok 1/0Can't use string ("Unknown") as a symbol ref while "strict refs" in use at /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5/IO/Zlib.pm line 545. # Looks like your test died just after 4. t/02_methods....dubious Test returned status 255 (wstat 65280, 0xff00) after all the subtests completed successfully t/99_pod........skipped all skipped: Test::Pod v0.95 required for testing POD Failed Test Stat Wstat Total Fail Failed List of Failed ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- t/02_methods.t 255 65280 4 0 0.00% ?? 1 test skipped.
