Question

It is obviosly some Perl extensions. Perl version is 5.8.8.

I found Error.pm, but now I’m looking for Core.pm.

While we’re at it: how do you guys search for those modules. I tried Google, but that didn’t help much. Thanks.

And finally, after I built everything, running:

./Build install 

gives me:

Running make install-lib  /bin/ginstall -c -d /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/i486-linux-thread-multi/Alien/SVN --prefix=/usr /bin/ginstall: unrecognized option `--prefix=/usr' Try `/bin/ginstall --help' for more information. make: *** [install-fsmod-lib] Error 1 installing libs failed at inc/My/SVN/Builder.pm line 165. 

Looks like Slackware’s ‘ginstall’ really does not have that option. I think I’m going to Google a little bit now, to see how to get around this.

Answer 1

It should be compatible. The CPAN Tester’s matrix shows no failures for Perl 5.8.8 on any platform.

Per the README, you can install it by doing:

perl Makefile.pl make make test make install
