in thread Module compile problem

For the perl 5.005.03 distribution, opcode.pl creates an output file opcode.h . As far as I can tell, this distribution doesn't make opnames.h when compiled from scratch.

I would like to understand why the modules look for opnames.h

    I see - opnames.h was introduced in 5.6.something. I suppose this just means that your module should have a "require 5.6.0" statement so its clear that you can't use it with your version of perl.

    I downloaded the module source and noticed that opnames.c is not referenced there. I tend to agree wit h the other poster who pegged the problem on ExtUtils::MakeMaker.
