Well, first things first. You asked if you *really* need to use the
SDK.
You need to use an SDK if you're cross-compiling, such as:
a. Making a Universal Binary build of Perl, either to distribute
or to use for building and distributing UB modules.
b. Building Perl to run on a OS version other than the one you're
building with.
Then since this copy of perl is for apache 2, I don't need it.
Thanks.
There is a possibility I erased part of the SDK
SDKs are separate sub-packages in the Xcode package, so you can re-
install them pretty easily, without installing the whole thing.
Yeah, I figured re-installing XCode should be sufficient, since the
only thing that I moved (and then tried to delete because I thought
it was an alias) was XCode.
Building perl without the SDK options worked.
But I'm still wondering whether I wanted the shared libraries and
threads. In fact, looking at perl -V on the system perl and comparing
it to the parallel perl, I'm thinking maybe I wanted that
multiplicity thing and I probably did want the large files option and
what is PERL_IMPLICIT_CONTEXT, and, oh, it looks like there are some
advisories I need to check.
Especially I'm thinking the shared libraries and threads are going to
be useful with mod_perl.
thanks more.
