| Subject: | Probe.pm is weird - suggest switch to Config::AutoConf |
Hi Adriano,
currently I package some modules to run some service scripts on an embedded platform. Newer MooX::Options require Term::Size::Any which leads for Unix based to Term::Size::Perl.
However, this leads to:
DEBUG: Executing shell function do_compile

Which is likely caused by unfortunate Probe.
For the records, you're not able to run any compiled code in a cross-compiled environment. All you can do is compile and likely link. You should have any fallback for such situations.
Please have a look to https://github.com/i-scream/Unix-Statgrab for proper working probes even for cross-compiling.
Cheers,
