I installed 5.8.7 on a Mac Mini running 10.4.2 under /usr/local,
executables in /usr/local/bin, used .bash_profile to add /usr/local/
bin to the front of my path (bleaugh).
(Hesitated about installing gpg, but trying to build it gave me a
huge bunch of integer precision errors with the sign bit so I decided
to just move ahead. Does cpan use openssl if it doesn't find gpg? Or
does it just not bother to check the checksums/signatures?)
sudid cpan, with the .cpan file under /usr/local/share/perl. (Is that
reasonable?)
Tried to install WWW:Curl from the cpan prompt. At the make test
stage, I get about twenty occurences of
Bareword "CURLOPT_MUTE" not allowed while "strict subs"
in different files, and cpan kindly refuses to complete the install.
105 out of 108 failed. I don't see any other errors.
I'm debating doing a parallel install of the latest curl into /usr/
local/bin.
Anyone have a better suggestion?
