9 perlhaiku - Perl version 5.10+ on Haiku
13 This file contains instructions how to build Perl for Haiku and lists
16 =head1 BUILD AND INSTALL
18 The build procedure is completely standard:
24 Make perl executable and create a symlink for libperl:
26 chmod a+x /boot/common/bin/perl
27 cd /boot/common/lib; ln -s perl5/5.41.13/BePC-haiku/CORE/libperl.so .
29 Replace C<5.41.13> with your respective version of Perl.
33 The following problems are encountered with Haiku revision 28311:
39 Perl cannot be compiled with threading support ATM.
43 The F<cpan/Socket/t/socketpair.t> test fails. More precisely: the subtests
44 using datagram sockets fail. Unix datagram sockets aren't implemented in
49 A subtest of the F<cpan/Sys-Syslog/t/syslog.t> test fails. This is due to Haiku
50 not implementing F</dev/log> support yet.
54 The tests F<dist/Net-Ping/t/450_service.t> and F<dist/Net-Ping/t/510_ping_udp.t>
55 fail. This is due to bugs in Haiku's network stack implementation.
