Lingua::LinkParser

a has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hey.

Have any of you'all had luck w/ getting Lingua::LinkParser to compile/run on a Solaris (2.5.1 x86) box? This doesn't sound like the usual PM sort of Q, so assign the appropriate flagelations if I'm stepping across some (to me) un-written boundary, but my attempts fail w/ ugly segfault errors.
The whole LinkParser module is written up in the latest The Perl Journal and, for a lapsed AI person such as my self, is one more link in a nebulous chain of making perl the proper engine for a really cool Turing test program. However my attempt on my, er, work machine has failed and dribbled off into a morass of gdb, stack pointers, free/malloc failures and pointer hassles. 'course the linux box ran it up just fine. dang commercial OSs

Any help, hints, useful experiences (or thoughts on getting Eliza et alia to work w/ LinkParser) appreciated.

An update (how do you get these in the original node?): of course, LinkParser works fine on a Suse linux box, so it must be my Sol setup. I fear it is due to pthreads and worse (not that I'm using threads, but the conflict seems to be related to thread connected .h files). May just have to live w/o it. a	[reply]
