(I know that there is a port, but I'd like to preserve my data, thus I'm doing this "the old fashioned way." :) ) When I run the "make fixdeps" step described in the directions, it attempts to load ExtUtil::MakeMaker from CPAN -- even though its already installed. This wouldn't be so bad, but it actually hangs and uses 100% of CPU time (according to "top") like its in an infinite loop. This is the output just before it hangs: [...cut...] Manifying blib/man3/File::Temp.3 Manifying blib/man3/ExtUtils::MM_Any.3 MSCHWERN/ExtUtils-MakeMaker-6.62.tar.gz /usr/bin/make -- OK CPAN: YAML loaded ok (v0.68) Running make test PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1 /usr/bin/perl "-Iblib/arch" "-Iblib/lib" "-MExtUtils::Command::MM" "-e" "test_harness(0, 'blib/lib', 'blib/arch')" t/*.t t/00compile.t ............. ok t/arch_check.t ............ ok t/backwards.t ............. ok t/basic.t ................. ok t/build_man.t ............. ok t/cd.t .................... ok t/config.t ................ ok t/dir_target.t ............ ok t/FIRST_MAKEFILE.t ........ ok t/fix_libs.t .............. ok t/fixin.t ................. ok t/hints.t ................. ok t/INST.t .................. ok t/INST_PREFIX.t ........... ok t/INSTALL_BASE.t .......... 3/20 I've found references to this on the web. They seem to indicate that its something with the FreeBSD port and that its fixed in version 6.63. Unfortunately, only version 6.62 is in the ports collection. Anyone know what to do to get past this? Thanks in advance, Jaime -- Network Administrator Cairo-Durham Central School District http://cns.cairodurham.org
