Checking... >lib/locale.pm: No such file or directory This is a symptom of using (say) a GNU tar compiled for SunOS4 on Solaris. When you run SunOS4 binaries on Solaris the run-time system magically treats pathnames matching m#lib/locale# - so when tar tries to create lib/locale.pm another one gets created instead. You may find the file under its assumed name and be able to rename it back. Or use Sun's tar to do the extract. >miniperlmain.c > CCCMD = cc -DPERL_CORE -c -I/usr/local/include -O >"./intrpvar.h", line 14: invalid token: ## You have also found the old SunOS4 /bin/cc or perhaps /usr/ucb/cc neither of which can handle ANSI C which perl5.005+ requires. You need to get an ANSI C compiler - either SunPRO or GCC is fine. (If you use gcc be sure it is compiled for version of Solaris you are using.) -- Nick Ing-SimmonsThread Previous | Thread Next
