Hello, all.
I've just hacked perl510 and perl510/extra packages to make perl510
build modules with gcc. Note, it's just repacked perl510 built by
Studio, but it builds modules with gcc. Also I modified oi-userland to
build both perl510 and perl516 32-bit modules and updated the following
modules;
library/perl-5/database
library/perl-5/database-5100
library/perl-5/database-516
library/perl-5/net-ssleay
library/perl-5/net-ssleay-5100
library/perl-5/net-ssleay-516
library/perl-5/pmtools
library/perl-5/pmtools-5100
library/perl-5/pmtools-516
library/perl-5/xml-parser
library/perl-5/xml-parser-5100
library/perl-5/xml-parser-516
library/perl-5/xml-simple
library/perl-5/xml-simple-5100
library/perl-5/xml-simple-516
Here 5100 stands for 5.10.0.
!!!Update instructions!!! //Important if you had some of old perl
modules installed!!!
1) To install new perl-516 firstly update perl-510. Old perl-510 ships
hardlinks. It was updated to install mediated links. Note, it is just
old repackaged perl 5.10.0 from /dev compiled with Sun Studio, only
manifest and to files (Config.pm and Config_heavy.pl) were patched to
deliver mediated links and to use gcc while building modules.
2) If you just update old library/perl-5/database and other modules
you'll receive new packages, which are just meta-packages, new packages
will likely pull library/perl-5/*-516 packages and you'll stay without
old modules, so remember to install corresponding library/perl-5/*-5100
packages after update (if someone is interested 5100 stands for perl
5.10.0).
3) I've tested that legacy library/perl-5/postgres-dbi module works with
library/perl-5/database-5100, but as always, something can be broken, so
please, make bug reports :)
4) Note, not all currently available perl5.10 modules are packaged for
perl5.16. Missing modules include:
- module/sun-solaris
- postgres-dbi
- authen-pam
- subversion
