I am not sure if you understand the install process, but my recommendation would be to do it by hand:

  • perl Makefile.PL generates Makefile
  • make uses the Makefile default section to do *things* - typically tests
  • make install uses the Makefile install section to install it

    In your case, the automated process is breaking. The suggestion provided was to: 

    perl Makefile.PL LINKTYPE=static
make static
make perl
make test
make install

    [download]

    It even suggested changing the first line to
    perl Makefile.PL LINKTYPE=static machine=<port>, where I assume port will either be hpux or hppa - documentation should say

    The other alternative is to modify the compiler flag after running perl Makefile.PL

    As steves pointed out, adding the -O compiler flag by vi'ing the outputted Makefile may be all that is required.

    Hope this helps - L~R
