The problem is that every RedHat version changes something in the system and you have to try to catch up. I guess the problem is only a problem of make test and not a problem of Embperl itself. Since I don't have the resources to install every available system, I depend on feedback and help from all users. > in my opinion the more important thing is you can install it easily than it > if it had many features. if you can't make it working you can't use those > features. i can't recommend it anybody if installing is such a pain even > with most common distros out of the box. > Of course makeing installation easy is important. I try my best. Makefile.PL which needs to handle all that is about 1330 lines, test.pl has nearly 3000 lines (not counting the more the 200 test pages) where large parts only makes sure that it tests correct on different platforms. So you see I have put some work into this, but it's never possible to catch up, there will always be a new system, that has a different layout, or a different linker or different charset or whatever and by the way I personaly never use RedHat, so it would be great if anybody using RedHat would do this job (like some of you already do, otherwise EMbperl would have never been what it is). Enought talking let's try to get it working, fetch 2.0b9 try to figure what is not working and report it or even better send a patch. > still embperl is maybe the best tool on its category - thank you gerald and > other coders. > Thanks :-) Gerald --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
