PAR::Packer Segmentation fault when using B::Hooks::EndOfScope or Class::MOP

szabgab has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

While trying to generate a stand-alone executable of some code using MooX::Options I got Segmentation faults. Checked some of the dependencies of MooX::Options and so far found that either of the following scripts have the same issue:

 
use Class::MOP;
print "hello\n";
[download]

use B::Hooks::EndOfScope;
print "hello\n";
[download]

I can generate executable using pp, but when I try to run the executable I get Segmentation faults. Reported as RT 90870, but if I could get some help either solving the actual issue, or just further narrowing down the cases....

Update

Further research shows that even the next script will bring out the Segmentation Fault.

use Pod::Usage qw(pod2usage);
[download]

I am starting to suspect that this problem might be related to my environment. Now I'd be happy if you could just try this and let me know the results. Save the above code in a file called example.pl install PAR::Packer and:

pp example.pl
./a.out
[download]

Your bug reports (both RT 90870 and RT 90869, as well as the OP) are meagre; I suppose you are using perl 5.18.0? No `perl -V` output, no arch, no OS given... I guess it is some UNIX like OS, Linux? BSD? MacOS X? Sorry for not being more helpful except with pedantry, but `pp a.pl` on my 64 bit debian wheezy gives me an a.out which, when run, complains about `Can't locate loadable object for module Moose in @INC (@INC contains: +CODE(0x1117780) /tmp/par-shmem/cache-b6fba448d186ac68663c9acc286d926b +bd929469/inc/lib /tmp/par-shmem/cache-b6fba448d186ac68663c9acc286d926 +bbd929469/inc CODE(0x17ecb00) CODE(0x17ecf80)) at /usr/share/perl5/PA +R/Heavy.pm line 95` [download] so I guess my system (stock perl and modules) is even more b0rken than yours... --shmem <update> Running pp on `#!/usr/bin/perl use Pod::Usage qw(pod2usage); print "hello\n";` [download] generates me an a.out which prints "hello world" and exits cleanly. I have perl v5.14.2, PAR Packager, version 1.012 (PAR version 1.005), Pod::Usage 1.36 </update> perl -le'print map{pack c,($-++?1:13)+ord}split//,ESEL'	[reply] [d/l] [select]

oh great, so if I brew 5.18.1 it might just start working. Great! I am going to try that. Thank you!	[reply]

The root cause for the segfaults has been fixed in PAR::Packer 1.016	[reply]
