Hi,
I'll fix inc/Carp.pm soon - once I've verified that replacing the //
operator with appropriate code is all that's needed.
I can't actually verify that inc/Carp.pm fixes the bug it's designed to fix,
as the PROJ4 stuff was building fine for me without it, anyway.
Cheers,
Rob

There is a copy of Carp in the inc directory
that is only used for perl 5.8.8 and perl
5.16.x in the Lib/Transform/Proj4/Makefile.PL.
It avoids a perl bug that kills the interpreter there
with terminal results to the perl Makefile.PL
process.. I expect to remove it once the
problem is resolved upstream or it is determined
a better work around.
We don't actually install anything to do with
Carp. This is basically monkey patching
things for the moment.

I'm confused, do we bundle Carp.pm? That strikes me as a really bad idea!
Only in the limited sense above.

Hi,
As regards 2.4.11_010 on various perls on MS Windows:
The problem with PGPLOT/Window.pm and Filter::Simple still persists.
And, on perl-5.8.8 and perl-5.8.9, the 'perl Makefile.PL' step fails
with:
String found where operator expected at inc/Carp.pm line 146, near "$arg
=~ s/'/\\'"

inc/Carp.pm has too many errors.

Line 118 contains the // operator which, as we all know, wasn't
implemented until 5.10.0.
Do we want to modify the code in Carp.pm to make it compatible with 5.8.x
? ... or just "up" the minimum perl version required to 5.010 ?
Cheers,
Rob
