Class::Std::Utils install problem (SOLVED)

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

Hi,

I'm having problems with the installation of the module Class::Std::Utils in some Linux systems. With the make test failing in a single test:

~/.cpan/build/Class-Std-Utils-v0.0.3# prove  t/ident.t
t/ident......1/?
#   Failed test 'ident acts like int on Regexp'
#   at t/ident.t line 15.
#          got: '0'
#     expected: '8789600'
# Looks like you failed 1 test of 15.

~~This problem, apparently, only occur in perl built for x86_64-linux-gnu-thread-multi.~~

Can, someone, confirm this problem? Any suggestion to resolve it?

I've made tests in the systems listed below:

perl, v5.8.8 built for i486-linux-gnu-thread-multi, Ubuntu 7.10 - OK
perl, v5.8.5 built for i386-linux-thread-multi, FC3 - OK
perl, v5.8.8 built for x86_64-linux-gnu-thread-multi, Ubuntu 7.10 - failed
perl, v5.8.8 built for x86_64-linux-thread-multi, Fedora 7 - failed

many thanks

Is the problem in the pre-compiled module Scalar::Util?! That came with both Linux distributions (Ubuntu 7.10 and Fedora 7). Basically the `ident` function only call the `Scalar::Util::refaddr`, and .. `perl -e 'use Scalar::Util; $ref = qr//; print "$ref\n"; print Scalar:: +Util::refaddr($ref)."\n";' (?-xism:) 0` [download] And after recompilation and installation of the module (same version, 1.19) `perl -e 'use Scalar::Util; $ref = qr//; print "$ref\n"; print Scalar:: +Util::refaddr($ref)."\n";' (?-xism:) 135576940` [download] And the tests for the Class::Std::Utils module `Class-Std-Utils-v0.0.3# prove t/ident.t t/ident......ok All tests successful.` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]
