Remember you checked the output of the make and the verbose test... It looks that the tests screw up big time on mac os x (at least for me with perl 5.8). I forced the install so far no trouble but I would need a killer script to test it though :-). My suggestion force make install in cpan or just make install without it. Well, not in cpan, but manually. Just go ahead and 'make install' and see if it works with your own code. FWIW, Darwinports has apache with a static mod_perl variant, perl 5.8.0, and libapreq in ports you should get a clean, working set up after you've installed darwinports by doing # port install -v -d apache +mod_perl here you should probably set the /usr/bin/perl to be a symlink to /opt/local/bin/perl, or have /opt/local/bin in your path before /usr/bin # port install -v -d libapreq-perl at some point in the near future I intend to make a .mpkg so you can have a double clickable installer of apache+ mod_perl, perl 5.8.0 and libapreq... but I'm about to move continents so that might have to wait a week or 2. However, I'd love to have more people testing the above ports for me (One thing, fink shouldn't screw things up, but it is possible...so if there are problems, remove fink from you environment (stop sourcing the init scripts) and try again.

5.8.0 binary incompatibility
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1
I am aware that Perl 5.8.0 is not binary compatible with previous
versions of Perl; however, I am having a hard time determining exactly
what I need to change/remove to satisfy this incompatibility.
I was originally getting an error when attempting to run CPAN similar to
the following (this is not verbatim):
dyld: perl Undefined symbols:
_Perl_sv_2pv
_perl_get_sv
After reading about the incompatibility and the make scripts problems
replacing certain files I removed libperl.dylib from
/Library/Perl/darwin/CORE and all the *.bundle files in the
/Library/Perl directory and its children.
This solved my problems with CPAN, but I now get the following error
when attempting to use perl the process the Makefile.PL for bioperl:
dyld: perl Undefined symbols:
_Perl_safefree
_Perl_safemalloc
_Perl_sv_2pv
_perl_call_method
_perl_get_sv
One thing I don't understand, why more undefined symbols now than before.
So, the crux of my question is, having removed libperl.dylib and all the
*.bundle files, what else do I need to remove to remedy this undefined
symbols problem?
Additionally, I should mention that I have seen multiple people mention
that removing and rebuilding Storable, specifically in reference to a
Fink install, has cured their problems; I have tried that to no avail. I
do have fink installed, but I am not running perl from a Fink install or
the Fink directories.

For these occasions I keep perl5.6.0 around and copy it to /usr/bin/perl as necessary, but another thing that helps is unsetting PERL5LIB, as that points to /sw/lib/perl5. So: fink install foo produces the error, whereas PERL5LIB= fink install foo does not. I'm aware that this doesn't have anything to do with bioperl, but it might be of use to people running 5.8.0 and fink (which relies on 5.6.0). Marcel
DynaLoader and prebinding
So I have this problem: Mac::Carbon takes a long time to load. $ time perl -Iblib/arch -Iblib/lib -MMac::Carbon -e1 real0m2.923s user0m2.570s sys 0m0.160s Profiling the run showed that over 80% of that time is taken by dyld, so I wondered if prebinding could solve the problem. However, perl uses .bundle files for DynaLoader, and .bundle files cannot be prebound. Drat. But .dylib files can be prebound, and I was able to modify DynaLoader.xs to load in either .bundle or .dylib files, and to compile my extensions as .dylib files. Woop. But I am having problems with the prebinding. I first had to rebuild libperl.dylib with prebinding, and that worked fine (just added -prebind). Woop woop. I added -prebind to my extension, and it complained that you can't use -undefined suppress with -prebind. Remove -undefined suppress, and got warnings about undefined symbols. Go figure. So I added -L/path/to/perl -lperl, and did it again, and I got complaints about conflicting symbols. ld: warning prebinding disabled because of symbols overridden in dependent dynamic shared libraries: /usr/lib/libSystem.dylib(crypt.So) definition of _crypt /usr/lib/libcrypto.0.9.dylib(fcrypt.o) definition of _crypt Drat drat. Anyway, I know there are perhaps better places to ask about dylib and prebinding, but I just wonder if anyone else has run into these issues with perl, before I move on. -- Chris Nandor [EMAIL PROTECTED]http://pudge.net/ Open Source Development Network[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://osdn.com/
