I need to install a few Perl modules on one of my OpenIndiana boxes (oi151a4), Digest::MD4 for example. Unfortunately the usual way of installation (perl Makefile.PL ; make ; ...) doesn't work because the created Makefiles are configured for the Sun/Solaris Studio compiler. How to proceed now? Download Oracle's Solaris Studio compiler or modify the Makefiles to use gcc instead of cc? Which compiler was used for buidling perl?
The perfect solution is to always install Perl modules using the compiler used to build Perl. Perl remembers all the nuances involved with the compiler used when Perl was built and replays these options when modules are built.
This behavior is a long-standing problem with Perl.
