Greetings, Perl addicts.

Today I've been struggling to get SDL Perl working here, but with no success. Despite the fact that I'm too skilled, and my super powers are not something easily found on your galaxy, This error got me.

I went to the main SDL perl dir where Build.PL is located and did:

perl Build.PL

But failed:

Can't use an undefined value as an ARRAY reference at make/lib/SDL/Build.pm line 181.

In my planet we code using a language called PHORMALIS, capable of compiling code into a real being, but even with all my 200 year experience with organic programming, I could find a way to make this work.

Your intergalactic Perl lover fellow needs some help!

PS. We have windows here and I want to use Perl to make games, yeah, they are culture here in ZERG-227, my planet.

Thank you very much and HAZGÄRZJE! (see you)
