Yeah, I’ll do that tonight if it hasn’t already been done. Cheers, Rob

Makemaker decides that PERL_LIB is "../../../../" instead of "/home/yorton/perl5/perlbrew/perls/perl-5.14.4/lib/5.14.4" below is the diff of the two Makefiles, but the relevant part is as follows: -PERL_LIB = /home/yorton/perl5/perlbrew/perls/perl-5.14.4/lib/5.14.4 -PERL_ARCHLIB = /home/yorton/perl5/perlbrew/perls/perl-5.14.4/lib/5.14.4/x86_64-linux +PERL_LIB = ../../../../lib +PERL_ARCHLIB = ../../../../lib I am guessing that MakerMaker decides that is being used as part of building perl, and that it should use it as the location for its header files. I know there is special logic in MakeMaker for this kind of purpose. I didn't know that. If we could get a handle on precisely how to detect that this problem might arise, then we could probably have Inline issue a warning that "things might go awry, and if they do then you should move the script to a different (sane) location". I tried running your demo script on Windows (as try.pl) in C:/git_tree/perl/Porting with perl-5.14.0, EU-MM-6.62 and it still worked fine for me. Might there be a perlbrew component to this issue ? (I'm not at all familiar with perlbrew. I just build my perls the old fashioned way and call them via different shell/batch scripts.) I see that you're running EU-MM-6.57_05. If you think it's worth the effort I guess you could see if updating to EU-MM-6.62 fixes the problem - or do any other digging you think might be productive. (It's actually a bit interesting.) Otherwise we can just settle for the "Don't do that" solution ;-) Cheers, Rob
