+ off_t member of the flock struct is a 64-bit integer but Perl
+ doesn't support the 'q' format for pack() and unpack(). On these
+ systems there seem to be no good way of assembling a flock
+ structure useing "pure Perl" and thus the File::FcntlLock::Pure
+ and File::FcntlLock::Inline modules won't get installed.

+ 0.15 Thu May 20 2014
+ - Module rewritten as three modules, one working
+ exactly as before, and two new ones that instead of
+ being XS-based use Perl code. For the first one the
+ Perl code for packing/unpacking the C flock struct is
+ generated when 'perl Makefile.PL' is run. For the other
+ a C program is created, compiled and run each time the
+ module gets loaded. This is in response to some concerns
+ the Debian dpkg package managers (who use the module) had
+ for certain circumstances when new Perl versions need to
+ be installed (as far as I understand;-)

-Using this module file locking via fcntl(2) can be done.
+File locking in Perl is usually done using the 'flock' function.
+Unfortunately, this only allows locks on whole files and is often
+implemented in terms of the the flock(2) manpage system function which has
+some shortcomings (especially concerning locks on remotely mounted file
+systems) and slightly different behaviour than the fcntl(2) manpage.
+
+Using this module file locking via the fcntl(2) manpage can be done
+(obviously, this restricts the use of the module to systems that have a the
+fcntl(2) manpage system call). Before a file (or parts of a file) can be
+locked, an object simulating a flock structure, containing information in a
+binary format to be passed to the fcntl(2) manpage for locking requests,
+must be created and its properties set. Afterwards, by calling the the
+lock() manpage method a lock can be set and removed or it can be determined
+if and which process currently holds the lock.
+
+File::FcntlLock (or its alias File::FcntlLock::XS) uses a shared library,
+build during installation, to call the the fcntl(2) manpage system function
+directly. If this is unsuitable there are two alternatives,
+File::FcntlLock::Pure and File::FcntlLock::Inline. Both call the Perl
+'fcntl' function instead and use Perl code to assemble and disassemble the
+structure. For this at some time the (system-dependent) binary layout of
+the flock structure must have been determined via a program written in C.
+The difference between File::FcntlLock::Pure and File::FcntlLock::Inline is
+that for the former this happened when the package is installed while for
+the latter it is done each time the package is loaded (e.g., with 'use').
+Thus, for File::FcntlLock::Inline to work a C compiler must be available.
+There are some minor differences in the functionality and the behaviour on
+passing the method for locking invalid arguments to be described below.
