Re^9: Perl-5.22.1 in ARM system (And yet expedient; and necessary!)

Posting hundreds of lines of output from what you state was a successful Perl build (your first? congrats!)

Thousands dear boy! Thousands.

These are lines 9874 thru 9901 of the output from a "FAIL"d build -- one of hundreds over 15 years -- that runs everything I've thrown at it without error.

As for "a bunch of bloviating blather": you are the master. I bow to your vexpertise.

With the rise and rise of 'Social' network sites: 'Computers are making people easier to use everyday'

Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.

"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority". I knew I was on the right track :)

In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.
