Bug #91770 for XML-Twig: test_xml_split.t doesn't play well with relocated perl

Subject:

test_xml_split.t doesn't play well with relocated perl

$Config{perlpath} is set to what perl was set to install to by default, but relocatable perl doesn't change this just because perl isn't there. $^X works better (though is tainted).

Oops! I didn't get an email for this bug, sorry for the (very!) late answer. Which relocatable perl are you using? I tried DWIM Perl, but did not manage to run it. __ mirod

Wed Feb 26 14:28:21 2014 The RT System itself - Status changed from 'new' to 'open'

I'm just using the "regular" perl with the relocatable option turned on during Configure on Linux (and sometimes AIX). I set perl for a given path, compile it, move it ... and perl, cpan, etc. generally works, but a few tweaks here and there are required, such as this one.
