Re: Installation of OpenSource Version

[Denver]

I'm trying to install newsclipper on a BSDI machine and whenever I type Perl Makefile.PL i get this error message   "syntax error in file Makefile.PL at line 4, next 2 tokens "use strict" syntax error in file Makefile.PL at line 8, next 2 tokens "my $home " syntax error in file Makefile.PL at line 13, next 2 tokens "Win32:" syntax error in file Makefile.PL at line 25, next 2 tokens "->" syntax error in file Makefile.PL at line 36, next 2 tokens "my $nccode " syntax error in file Makefile.PL at line 39, next 2 tokens "my $VERSION" /(\$VERSION =.*?)\n/: nested *?+ in regexp at Makefile.PL line 41. "    I don't have root access on this machine and only have access to my own directory.  How can I compile this as a single-user without the root account doing it for me?   Thanks
