[ID 20000315.003] perl5.6-RC1 not OK - modules complain.
Message ID:
Pine.OSF.3.95.1000315103236.23297B-100000@sula1.foa.dk
This is a bug report for perl from ht000@foa.dk,
generated with the help of perlbug 1.27 running under perl v5.6.0.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
[Please enter your report here]
Build of perl5.6-RC1 completes without failure.
The tests and installation likewise.
The problems come when I try to install modules.
Bundle::CPAN has a small glitch in CPAN::WAIT:
....
mkdir blib/man3
cp lib/CPAN/WAIT.pm blib/lib/CPAN/WAIT.pm
cp lib/WAIT/Client.pm blib/lib/WAIT/Client.pm

Net::Daemon (a part of Bundle::DBI) fails miserably:

....
After a *LOT* of fiddling I can get as far as getting most of the "usual"
modules installed, but always there are many complaints along the way.
Most use of Sys::Syslog works - so Net::Daemon must do something special
in 5.6-RC1, in 5.005_03 there is no error.
I have tried to reinstall several times on different machines but nowhere
have I got something that is nearly as stable as 5.005_03.
