MARC::Charset 1.34
Hi, I have uploaded version 1.34 of MARC::Charset to CPAN. This is a minor bugfix and portability release. Changes from 1.33 are: - RT#83257: use AnyDBM_File rather than hardcode GDBM_File To improve portability, use AnyDBM_File to select a DBM rather than rely on GDBM_File. GDBM_File apparently used to be a core module, but not all distributions included it, particularly OS X. In any event, GDBM_File is no longer core. This patch also includes a tweak to allow MARC::Charset to work with NDBM_File and ODBM_File, neither of which support 'exists'. I've tested MARC::Charset successfully on the following DBMs: - GDBM_File - DB_File - NDBM_File - ODBM_File - SDBM_File This is also my preferred order; SDBM_File is selected last because it produces the biggest data file on disk. - RT#38912: fix mapping of double diacritics (ligature and double tilde). Thanks to Thomas P. Ventimiglia for the bug report and test case. Regards, Galen -- Galen Charlton gmcha...@gmail.com

It gunzips fine, but then there seems to be something wrong with the tar file... /Leif Andersson Stockholm University Library
Re: MARC::Charset 1.34
Corrupt tar file RESOLVED. But here's the background anyway. I downloaded the MARC-Charset-1.34.tar.gz to Windows7. The archive is corrupt was the error message from WinRAR on Windows. Other utils on the same platform agreed. I made a second download with the same result. Now - third try - it suddenly works! So, either something happened during the first two transfers. Or - some mirror somewhere has a corrupt copy. (and my downloads happened to use that mirror) /Leif Från: Galen Charlton [gmcha...@gmail.com] Skickat: den 11 februari 2013 20:01 Till: Leif Andersson Kopia: perl4lib Ämne: Re: MARC::Charset 1.34 Hi, On Mon, Feb 11, 2013 at 10:50 AM, Leif Andersson leif.anders...@sub.su.semailto:leif.anders...@sub.su.se wrote: It gunzips fine, but then there seems to be something wrong with the tar file... Could you elaborate? In particular, what platform are you on and what error message are you getting? I tried installing MARC::Charset 1.34 via a 'cpan MARC::Charset' on a fresh Debian box, and it worked for me. Regards, Galen -- Galen Charlton gmcha...@gmail.commailto:gmcha...@gmail.com

Out of curiosity, are you using ActiveState or Strawberry? Regards, Galen -- Galen Charlton gmcha...@gmail.com
