in reply to Time::Hires installation under RH Linux 9.0

Is there some reason you are not able to install the current version? (Time::HiRes 1.48) It gets, makes, and installs perfectly on my Redhat 9.0 distro.

Cheers,

    I did try with both 1.47 and 1.48. I also did a fresh install of RH 7.3 with perl 5.6.1 and both 1.47 and 1.48 worked well (1.47 has installed well many, many times).

    Unfortunately in theis "experiment" I changed 2 variables at the same time:

    1) RH 7.3 -> RH 9.0
    2) perl 5.6.1 to 5.8.0

    Your results would indicate that perhaps RH 9.0 is not the problem. On your RH 9.0 do you have perl 5.8.0 or 5.6.1 ?

    Thanx!

      Hmm. perl -V give me this (just in case you want to compare more).

      The version of RH 9.0 I was using was a text only install. I figured that there might be something missing in the Linux so I reinstalled with EVERYTHING.

      I then tried to install the Time::Hires and got the same error

      Here is the perl -V off that system:

        Another interesting note:

        I tried using an older version of Time::HiRes from cpan.org - v1.20. Same problem, except the error "missing separator" appears on line 88 in this case.

        Perhaps something is broken in the perl Makefile.PL process and it is making bad Makefile?
