I was able to successfully compile and test MARC::Charset v. 0.8 from
CPAN with the following minor modifications, while using MacPerl
5.8.0a2 on MacOS 9.2.2:
Line 37 of Table.pm:
changed to use NDBM_File rather than SDBM_FILE (since SDBM isn't
included with MacPerl).
Line 182 of Table.pm:
changed from 'SDBM_File' to 'NDBM_File'
After making the above change, along with minor modifications to the
Makefile.PL file (deleting the WriteMakefile section, leaving only
the db building code, since makefiles don't play well with MacPerl;
changing the 'use lib "lib"' as necessary to point to the location of
the files on my machine (and after manually installing the .pm files
to their appropriate locations)), running Makefile.PL program
resulted in:
compiling marc8/utf8 database, please be patient
CODE(0x48f63a0)
After that, each of the tests indicate success, with only minor
modification for cross-platform path differences (table.t line 13
adjusted to account for MacOS ':' vs. Unix '/').
I don't know the significance of "CODE(0x48f63a0)" in the output from
the database compilation.
Thank you,
Bryan Baldus
