Re: PAR::Packer Installation; Prototype mismatch; libperl.so: File format not recognized; ActivePerl-5.14.2.1402-x86

Thanks for pointing out the problem. I tried installing it with perl versions 5.8.8, 5.10.1, 5.12, 5.14.1, and also ActivePerl-5.12, and ActivePerl-5.14. Each one complained about a private /tmp/par-root; so, in order to install it, you'll need to remove /tmp/par-root first. I'm on Fedora, so I did

mv /tmp/par-root /root/Desktop
right-click "Move to Trash"
Empty Trash

export PERL_TEST_POD=1
[download]

and you're good to go.

It does not work. I deleted /tmp/par-root and set PERL_TEST_POD=1. ls /tmp PAR-Packer-1.012/ PAR-Packer-1.012.tar echo $PERL_TEST_POD 1 perl Makefile.PL Checking if your kit is complete...

Any idea?	[reply]
