In a release tarball, the .svn directories don't exist, so config/gen/revision.pl can't find the svn revision number. That's fine, but it's probably wiser in that case to not report "failed" during the Configure.pl process, but to simply skip over the missing number. --- parrot-0.2.0/config/gen/revision.pl Thu Apr 14 10:27:32 2005 +++ parrot-andy/config/gen/revision.pl Mon May 9 10:13:28 2005 @@ -7,7 +7,8 @@ =head1 DESCRIPTION -Determines parrot's revision. +Determines parrot's SVN revision.
